the key events...
Hi you all,
I have not been really good about writing my blog, so I won't give you all the training details, just the highlights. The last two weeks have been very difficult in terms of motivation. I thought that the closer the gigathlon comes, the more excited I get - it is actually the opposite. Well, it is probably completely normal that you suddenly feel like you need 4 more weeks to prepare. So I am working more mentally, reassuring myself that I have done my best over the past 10 months, and it will be more than enough!
10 days ago, I cycled a beautiful 150km through the Juraregion before I headed to Amsterdam on Monday. Then last weekend, 4 of us participated in the Jura-Brevet, a wonderful tour with 2000 vertical and 155km. With my way there and back, I cycled 205km - which is exactly what I would like to repeat tomorrow. I have taken two days off to be able to train some more, then I am heading to Roth to see my friends from Mallorca and the iron man on the weekend... I can't believe I will be racing in 10 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!
