At the 16th of january 2011 my season of 2011 started up again,
by particpate at the Sparkassen- Run of Düren on the 10km course.
It is a round course, you had to run 6times, and tradionally all
the local favourites and hobby runners participate here as well.
While we had a clear sunny sky, I wanted to test myself, what
I´m still up to on 10km, no thoughts about the placement – don´t
care. Even the course got lots of curves and corners, you are
able to run really fast times. Even I wasn´t in such a good running
shape, because of the ice and snow in the last weeks, it went
quite good for me and I was able to run with the fastest women.
All the time I was on the 3rd place, but still had an eye on the
woman in front of me, and in the „ good old times“ I would have
catch her easily, but as said before, I´m not in the shape I´m
used to and of course the competitors, trained as well. But more
important was the time for me, I reached the finish after 39:56min
on the 3rd place in the women field and it was the 2nd place in
my age-group, altogether there were 395 runners on the start.
But the most important reason of this run was, that we( chiKKen
and myself) ran this 10km run for NADINE ( our PRECIOUS-PIRATE),
who suppoprted us really loud with the help of the Capt´n and
Timika, Nadine was aloud to leave the hospital for a few hours,
just for this run….
Keep on running -
Sveny
