Grigorova has arrived at the seashore after having run the 600 kilometers of the challenging tourist route along the ridge of Stara Planina for 5 days, 22 hours and 55 minutes.

In this way, Grigorova became the first woman to pass the distance at a racing pace. The record of the Kom - Emine trail is held by Bulgarian athlete Kiril Nikolov - Disl, who covered the 600 km for 4 days and 13 hours in 2015.
