Hey TRF,

Just ran a half marathon (21km, three laps) on this legendary race track.
Two friend with me, one running his own pace and one supporting with coffee and pie

I finished in approximately 1:51, should get a confirmation email later this night.
My friend finished in 2:36-ish.

Just a great day

well done Bas

Nice piece of Eau Rouge...imho the best turn in F1.

teqp · 4 March 2018, 04:28 AM

Very cool Bas. I’ve don’t think I can run outside when it’s that cold. Good job.

Galibier · 4 March 2018, 04:32 AM

Driven it a lot. Not sure about running those gradients though.

Eau Rouge was steeper than I expected it to be!

Imagine going through there at 180mph!

That is really cool. Spa is the one F1 race I want to get to that I haven't seen yet.

Serious tread time!! Well done.

milov · 4 March 2018, 09:10 AM

Well done Bas... As much as I dislike the cold, cold weather clear sky race days always offered great potential to PB ... but was the track slippery?

tritium8 · 4 March 2018, 09:12 AM

Really cool! Such an awesome track.Congrats on such a cool race.

RW16610 · 4 March 2018, 09:14 AM

Way to go, Bas! That's easily my favourite track.

Abdullah71601 · 4 March 2018, 09:41 AM

Well done Bas!

1st amg · 4 March 2018, 10:10 AM

Good stuff Bas.....one of my most favorite F1 tracks ever!! I will hope to see a race there one day!

AzHadEnuf · 4 March 2018, 02:44 PM

Very cool Bas! Did you run on intermediates or full wets? Can’t wait for the ‘18 F1 season to begin.

SearChart · 4 March 2018, 06:06 PM

Cheers guys!
This and the Nordschleife are my two favourite tracks.

Both are a 50min-1hr drive from home.

Yes it was quite slippery, had a few whoops moments but nothing serious

Cool medal - congrats!

OmegaJJH · 4 March 2018, 10:51 PM

Congratulations Bas!
That’s quite an iconic venue to run around.

I’ve got tickets booked for the Spa Grand Prix later this year and very excited about it.
(Although I hope it’s a little warmer than it was in your pics)

Be sure to post pictures of the GP
