Over the weekend, a runner from the Xeye team and another from the Goierri Garaia team achieved remarkable results in the veteran categories, accumulating a total of four medals, including a gold, a silver, and two bronzes.
The runner competing in the over-60s category won one gold and one silver medal. On Saturday, he triumphed in the vertical kilometer race held in the town of Brañosera, a race affected by adverse weather conditions. Due to a storm, the course had to be shortened, and the first three runners finished with a difference of barely six seconds.
The following day, the same runner also decided to compete in the mountain race held in Aguilar de Campoo. After completing two laps of a demanding eight-kilometer course, he secured second place, finishing one minute and six seconds behind the winner. The athlete stated that the shortening of the previous day's race had a positive effect on his performance, allowing him to achieve unexpected results.
Meanwhile, the runner from the Goierri Garaia team, competing in the over-40s category, also had an exceptional weekend. He participated in both events and reached the podium in both, finishing in third place and returning home with two bronze medals.
