Tips for running in Extremadura in april
Always carry a lightweight waterproof windbreaker in your pack: spring storms arrive without warning.
April is a transition month: you may need short sleeves in the valley and long sleeves at the summit in the same race.
Springs and streams usually carry water in April: even so, do not drink from natural sources without filtering.
