<aside> 👨‍🍳 From thoughts after the race

<aside> 📌 “I think over and over about the round of applause 👏 that we will give to the cooker. It was not only for him… it was for the whole crew who made it possible. They had a clear vision (the dream of Richard) and all of them pull towards and contributes to make it happens. Nobody asked for that applause… it came from the heart ❤️ of each person”

🚀 Intro

I had some friends in Basel area that told me about this race. I was in Nepal by the first time in March 2018 and I knew I wanted to go back and that looked an adventure that ticked ✅ all what I liked. I signed up for the edition in October 2020 but unfortunately due to Covid I had to wait 2 years for the race to resume.

🏁 The race

After a long 9h bus ride 🚌 on Nepali bumpy roads, which will leave us with plenty of time to talk, we arrived before dark to the start of the race, Soti Khola 📍.

We are all there, rooms are assigned, a delicious dinner 😋 is prepared, briefing 📣 is given, we prepare the backpack for next day and get ready to sleep 😴 in the tea house. That will be the night ritual for the next 9 days.

And this is how attentive we were for the briefings 📣
