is the Translantau25 doable for a beginner?
i apologize if this has been discussed elsewhere. im a beginner runner, currently doing around 40-50km per week (mostly on flat road but starting to introduce some trails and elevation). im working towards gradually increasing my mileage to around 70-80km per week.
ive found that i quite enjoy running and would like to join my first race. the TransLantau by UTMB is happening in around 6 months' time.
my question is would the TL25 race, which is about 27km and 1100m elevation, be feasible for a beginner? not looking to race but complete it within the 6hrs cutoff.
or are there any suggested beginner friendly races around Asia? thanks
