Tips for running in Castile-La Mancha in march
Pollen allergies start in March: if you are sensitive, carry antihistamine and consider a buff to cover nose and mouth.
Days are longer but mornings still cool: a thin thermal base layer under your race shirt can make the difference.
Pine processionary caterpillars are active in March: avoid touching nests and keep distance from caterpillars on the trail.
