Holiday good mate, that was 25th time in Benidorm, back again in November! Ive walked up the cross loads of times, very enjoyable but never ran it. Like you say come 7pm at night it was still burning so I dont know how you managed to run in that heat, especially if you've been sun bathing in it all day. I did it once in Greece and it early killed me. Good luck with your marathon in Berlin later this month. :)

Hope you had a nice holiday too. It was hot early on in the day and just seemed to get hotter!!! My tempo run was a real test but pleasing to complete it. Did you get to run up to the cross on top of the steep rocks?
