City Man 2010 and myself right in the middle... The very spezial
Ron preparation for a triathlon is...never been swimming again
since finished the last City Man in 2003, didn´t ran for the last
three years…and…
Declaring, sometimes I sat on the bike… but we did a great BBQ
in the evening before the Competition and drank a lot of wheat
beer…and of course took a trip to the KIEZ ( because we had foreign
visitors…) and than finished with an unbelievable 67th place from
167 in his age-group.
Maybe I gotta work a little bit with my exercise plans !?!
All guests are there...BBQ is on fire...
Tasteful strawberries for dessert…Sabrina, Maren,… Reiner and
Rainer said it was a good idea...
Rainer brought me his walking and cycling helping frame…just fixing
the height of the saddle…ready.
It fits!
lets go to the KIEZ...
KIEZ is a wonderful thing…for foreign visitors J
The next morning brought me back to reality...
20minutes to go for my start…
Last instructions from the woman in charge…
and let´s get it started...like the pigs on their way to the shambles...
Find yourself a nice place to start and put on your bathing cap…
…and start !
Later, we all were able to find some algae in our suits...
Schwuppdiwupp...( means very quickly and unexpected) leaving the
waters after 12minutes…and totally exhausted....
Cycling was allright with a jet like this, average of 34km/h…
...now the running part....
but this should come to an end as well after 29minutes…overall
place 1194 and in my age-group MSEN3 the 67th place in 1:29:10h
Thanks a lot at my pro-photographer Rainer !!!
and of course to my sweetheart Gaby !
On the next day was the olympic distance with Reiner, Maren and
theoretic Hakan...( Hakan didn´t have yet the allowance from his
team-leader)
This is Reiner, finishing the bike part
…and change very fast for the running.
Reiner overall place 1135, 151th AG MSEN2 2:43:03h
Maren did a tough job as well and finished on the 256th place
overall and 69th in her age-group with a time of 2:58:04
Next year we will participate as well here at the Hamburg City
Man !!! Maybe their will be some more PIRATES on the start !?
