VI. The sixth act.
This is not the end of this drama. This is the start of it. You can now begin to comprehend what you have accomplished. Your friends and family from back home will call you and want to know how the race was. And this is when all 9,000 individual stories full of pain, fun and glory will be told. And in that very moment you’ll know that you will return. The Maratona dles Dolomites is the world’s most beautiful and inspiring setting to become a hero.
How is this story going to end? You’ll never know until you get your ass up and make the journey yourself. You’re the author of your own drama. And it’s upon you to decide how many acts it shall have.
