Just to add, somebody who is fit with no underlying heart or lung problems is very unlikely to cause themselves harm going for a run at 2.5k with no acclimatising. It is too low for proper mountain sickness. It's actually pretty good training
Just be aware that you night be a little less surefooted than usual as your coordination could be a little off. Of you feel like you are fainting, just stop and breathe and it'll pass.
Me and Jana are leaving for a climb in ten mins. From 1800m to 3450m in the course of about 2km horizontal. We will be feeling the altitude and then some. Time to see if the running and weight loss has paid off.
