I had been afraid that the race could last weekend in Luxembourg Weiswampach be exhausting. Such a tough race but I had not expected. But from the beginning ...
I made before the race, the hope that I would get while swimming may be a fast group and could rise accordingly far forward from the water. For this reason, I ordered myself at the start relatively far to the right. So that was my thought at least I could losschwimmen without stress, would the 165-strong field going, and would have caught a pair of fast feet. Well, that was in shape but sometimes something does not work out from all ... Launch, next really took off and before I came anywhere near that group, I had the residue 15m despite all efforts I could not close. Still, I could climb
at position 13 from the water and jump on my bike. The next 40km were running but not at all as planned. Somehow my legs did not quite and I had trouble holding on to the four times for driving 10km round the back wheels of my front men. It was really annoying, mainly because the 600 meters very hilly and winding bike course I was especially happy. Especially at the beginning of each round moving to increase with a slope of up to 18% gave me to create real and pulled me around the other Time the tooth ...;-)
The final run began quite tough and very wavy, over forest and meadow trails running route did the rest. Thank God then went between km 4 and 5 on the node and finally I was able to catch up before I placed people.
with 11th place but I am very pleased, especially since just gone too far not optimal. The swim start was just bad luck and the wheel-running performance and suggest that I just have a little break from training the last weeks was. The competition was a wonderful experience, everything was well organized and organizers and volunteers were friendly and relaxed when you're fit, then the track is top ...;-) I'm going to meet the deadline for next year times precaution free ... Now it is
until the weekend put your feet up and let the training contribute to the final race for the 2nd Bundesliga in Krefeld to get fit.
Cheers ...
