When I signed up for the Guara Somontano Trail 2025, I knew it was going to be a tough challenge. However, I underestimated how brutal the heat and rocky sections could be, even in October. This race through the heart of Aragón isn’t just a test of endurance — it’s a real battle of strategy, patience, and body awareness. Today, I want to share what worked for me and what I would do differently, in case you’re planning to toe the line in Alquézar this year. What makes the Guara Somontano Trail unique First off, the Guara Somontano Trail 2025 is not just another 100K mountain race.

But nothing—absolutely nothing—can prepare you for the way the Pyrenees test every inch of your body and mind. Over 105 km, the terrain pushes you into steep ascents, exposed ridgelines, and hauntingly beautiful valleys that steal your breath, both figuratively and literally.

From the very first step of the Whalers’ Great Route trail race, I felt like I was running through pages of Azorean history. This wasn’t just another trail event—it was a visceral encounter with the island of Faial’s deep-rooted connection to the ocean, whaling heritage, and cultural resilience. Each ascent, viewpoint, and coastal descent told a story, echoing the legacy of the whalers who once braved the Atlantic from this volcanic gem in the Azores. Running through time: a route marked by history Before diving into the race itself, it’s worth understanding where we are running. Faial, a small island in the central group of the Azores, might seem unassuming at first glance. However, its past is anything but quiet. From the 18th to the
