Who fought the road athletes? In Miass, the famous marathon "Running clean water", which was held 21 years old, under the threat of a breakdown. Local authorities reduced distance by 12 kilometers under the pretext of road safety in the city. Fighters for a healthy lifestyle are confident: for the event is the finish line.
This article is twenty years ago about the first start of the ecological marathon. Then no one assumed that the "Run of Pure Water" around Lake Turgoyak will become the Miass brand, in its level will enter the top ten marathons of Russia, and in the number of participants will acquire the status of international. "Cleared the shores, trees sazed, the rivers were cleaned, which are shown here," the Love Casov, director of the Marathon "Running Pure Water" recalls.
This year, two weeks before the start of "Running water" athletes learned that the Marathon distances at 42 kilometers Mias authorities cut off 12. The trail will be held only around Lake Turgoyak - this is only 30 kilometers. The traditional festive route through the streets of the city for marathontes will be closed. Participants are bred by their hands: as against the background of the propaganda of a healthy lifestyle, the affairs did their sporting event?
This is a real holiday was. People in anticipation of "tear down with hooves", now at the distance!
- Probably, they went to the motorists, for whom, across the throat, stood closed streets.
At the meeting, officials are parked by an indisputable argument: the movement of participants in the city is insecure. After the emergency at the Tornado festival, where dozens of people were injured, Miass's power unshakable. All mass events under special control. "Not so long ago, one very bad iconic event happened. And since then it is from the city of Miass there is reason to be reinsured," says Gennady Vaskov, Head of the Social Protection Department of the Miass Population.
In Argayashsky district "Tornado", the plans of the organizers of the Festival "Ural Friend", painfully hit the marathon. Local deputies are making a warning of the city administration for "unsporting behavior." "The brand Miass" Running Clean Water "will already be lost, and it is very difficult to restore it," said Marina Tomilov, deputy meeting deputies of the Mias City District.
The news that the marathon "Running clean water" turns into an ordinary race, scattered quickly. A large-scale event where hundreds of participants started, fades in front of her eyes. For example, athletes from Kazakhstan have already called the Organizers and reported that they would not come to overcome the 30-kilometer distance.
Officials promised that they would do everything to return the marathon next year, but first build a new equipped track.
This category of sports backpacks is designed for running, multigan, rogaines, trailransnigning. A wide range of ASICS, Camp, Salomon models, Dynafit, Osprey and other famous brands is presented to the Sport Marathon. Buy the perfect tread backpack is quite real, if you consider the necessary characteristics to which he must have:
- Convenient landing. The backpack should sit tightly on the back and not hang out while driving, but do not make it difficult to breathe. Some models have a vest design and are practically merged with the body.
- Ease. The less weight behind his back, the easier it is to run, especially for long distances. The easiest tread backpack in the sports marathon is a 5-liter Camp Trail Vest 5 Multi weighing only 200 grams. It is with such a run of ultrayla - will throw hundreds of kilometers.
- Capacity. It all depends on the distance and the equipment you need. As a rule, the volume of the multistive backpack from 5 to 20 liters. Very comfortable models with pockets on the straps - in the smallest backpack you can fit everything you need and get straight on the run: water, snack, navigator, windbreaker. In addition, on many backpacks for trailransning there is an attachment for trekking sticks.

- Drinking system or the possibility of its installation. Many trailet starts are not provided for power and refreshments, so the water supply should always have a water supply. Well, if there are still pockets for drinking bottles on the straps - who ran on Elton, knows that there is no water.

For the 2017 season, the Kazan field planned another 3 big start: White Night Marathons (St. Petersburg), Europe - Asia (Yekaterinburg) and Almetyevsky Marathon. On average, 1 marathon was obtained per month. Taking into account the fact that after each start you need to recover, and to the next to be summarized, more frequent marathons are undesirable. But 2 weeks before the "White Nights" marathon, the coach suggested that the workout run to half in Miass on Lake Turgoyak at the competition "Running clean water". I gladly accepted the offer.
The history of the Marathon "Running Pure Water" originates in October 1991. Initially, the track was laid around the city, then the start was transferred to the beach of Lake Turgoyak, and the distance was laid along the shores. Lake Turgoyak is the pearl of our region, which is clean in the purity of water and painting the surroundings in a row of beautiful places of the globe. To save this unique creation of nature, draw attention to the problem of ecology - one of the main ideas of the marathon around Lake Turgoyak.
The route was published, and no surprises were expected, but at the opening began to talk about any changes. The markup at the distance was, and there were volunteers, but there were a lot of lost. On the half, even the leaders slipped the turn and ran an additionally a couple of kilometers away, and there were participants on the marathon who were running up to 55 km.
Last year, most of the route took place on asphalt roads, so we set the task to run at a good speed. But the most unexpected was that the track remained almost without asphalt plots. The traffic police did not overlap the road. And it became clear only at the distance. Therefore, tasks and tactics had to be changed along.
And now everything is in order.
In the evening I looked at the weather forecast to navigate what to run. The temperature promised running, +16 degrees, and rain. I really wanted the forecast on the rain did not come true. To the rain, you need to be ready moral and physically. We need removable clothes and shoes. The semi-marathon can be running without food, but 2 gel prepared.
Start announced from 11 am, but you still need to have to register. We left Chelyabinsk at 8 am, with the calculation that we have time to do notice in 1.5 hours to reach, register and warm up. The registration procedure for pure water is arranged in the old manner. Even if she filed a preliminary application, it does not mean anything. You need to defend 2 queues. The first to show a medical certificate and pay, the second to get a room. The paradox is that on all participants 1 cashier, and outstanding numbers, a man 10-15. Accordingly, a huge queue for payment and bored volunteers on issuing numbers. Due to the fact that by 11 hours did not all have time to register, the start was postponed by 15 minutes. We barely managed to 11 hours, and the time for dressing and warm-up remains quite a bit. At that time it was cool, cloudy and windy. In the course, I decided to use another set of clothes, and even there was a desire to leave the windbreaker. But while warm up, sharply warmer.
At the start, it was possible to accommodate close to the leaders. Start Dan.
From the very beginning, it turned out to be surrounded by men, and the tempo tried to keep such that they would not let them go. Of course, it was able due to the support of the coach. The first 6 kilometers were on the sawing road and in the forest paths, mostly with a set of height. It was not easy. The pulse rose to 184. What at the marathon I did not allow. And if I fled alone, then, most likely, frightened and dropped the pace. From the 2nd to the 6th kilometer, I got the fastest "five in my newest running history. Even the short tempo, I did not run faster. The calculation was to strain on the slides, and then "roll" on asphalt. Start twist in the right side. Again, this feeling appeared for the first time. I was looking forward to when there will be asphalt and running under the mountain. Alas, on asphalt we ran only to a small site, along the roller's track, with which we went to the forest and fled just on the hijacked grass.
Under the grass could be all anywhere: snag, stone, water. Somewhere on the 8th kilometer there was a jacket lily with a crowded. Athlete, in the career of which there is a marathon for 2 hours 29 minutes. The presence of great running experience did not save it from injury. You can submit an internal state of an athlete in such a situation. It became clear that today it will not be possible to work on speed. A more important task is to keep health, run without injury. Soon the leaders who have already passed the reversal. Evdokia Bukina appeared very quickly, she fled for 4 men. It was very uncomfortable to diverge with the oncoming athletes on narrow paths, while all the speed fell. I began to consider how much women met, counted 8. Among them did not see from their age group, I decided that it would make sense to control the tempo, otherwise they can catch up and overtake, and I did not want to get a chance to get into the prize trip. Here I was overtaken athlete at number 187, and it seemed to me that she was my age. Put yourself a task not to miss her out of sight. There was a power point, volunteers warned everyone that you need to run. We did it, unfortunately, it did not all, a little thing, but insulting. On Points, we did not delay, because drinking and food was with you. Although the gels did not take advantage.
After the turn again, a narrow path and counter athletes. On the nearest lift managed to bypass athlete at number 187, because she moved a step. Now it was necessary to tear off from it so that there was no visual contact. Running has already become more calm, on the pulse 160-165, the pace managed to keep at the level of 5:20 - 5:40.
Another woman appeared at the back, I did not want to let her closely. And it was possible. A group of men fled ahead, one of which was a smartphone on his hand, and a disco music sounded on the full volume. It seems that this company was comfortable. But I and the coach on this occasion was the same assessment: the forest and the sounds of birds are dramatically dissembed with such music. It was necessary to somehow get rid of these sounds. At first I tried to pick up men so that they accelerate and destroyed us. To acceleration, they were not ready, so I had to overtake us and disappear. At the same time, they were broken from the catching girl.
Shortly before the finish, I was met by Elena, the passport, which came to tourgoyak just run. For her, the meeting also turned out to be unexpected. With the complete absence of fans in the forest, it was very pleasant to get support. The last 4-5 kilometers flee it easier, because the paths became more hard and more descents appeared. A kilometer 3 to the finish of me unexpectedly overtook a young girl, the coach suggested clinging to her, but I decided that her pace could not be found.
At first, I was afraid for my knees on the descent, because 2 months ago in Kislovodsk on such descents I passed a step, as the pains did not allow to run. To my surprise, legs coped with all the descents and lifts. There was no transitions to step anywhere. In general, it turned out a good power training. The finish turned out to be vigorous. There were forces on a smile.
As soon as the clock stopped at the finish, saw that out of 1 h 50 minutes later. Justice to say that the distance is shorter than 21 kilometers. The plans stood 1:45. But I am satisfied with this result. The main thing is the legs are intact. The state of fatigue after the finish line covered immediately. And the legs worked for fame, no longer wanted to go, digesting the load. Evdokia Bukina advised to go into cold water, that we did with the coach. Good advice, if possible, you need to use both workouts and competitions: it is easier immediately. True, thoughts about what would be good to buy, instantly disappeared. The water was very cold.
Outcome. Official result 1: 49.15 and first place in the age group. The medal of the finisher at this start was not, so the prize medal and the statuette by the way. There is something to hang next to the medal from the Kazan Marathon. For the results of the coach, too, can be rejected. Of the 3-plated athletes on the semi-maralphon, 1st place in the absolute test, the 1st and 3rd in the age groups. The pleasure of the competition is obtained. There was even an interest in the trailey scars, but the second time I don't want to run at such a distance.
