Cross country, an Xterra duathlon at the 29.9.12 in the mountain of Harburg.
I had to run 3 rounds, ride two rounds with each 10km and finally to run one round with 2,5km.
It sounds like it was nothing, but the course had lots of trails and even more meters of altitude, more than the height of the Michel of Hamburg and more.The bikes needs to have bar-ends, but my construction was allright. Daniela and Torben were also on the start and myself, the un-trained women who just is able to pushe the gas, or the brake pedal of my cr. Daniela became the third overall and myself, it was like a wonder, on the 8th place
The wether was allright, we even had sunshine. But the coursewas all slippery, wet and muddy, because of the heavy rainfalls in the days before. And the ground had a magical attraction for myself, with it roots, stones, pond and more, but I knew it before, I only had 1,7pressure in my tyres. That was all mean lying there in the dirt, even the others passed me, and my right knee hurt, so much, that I rather hobbled around than I walked.Julia and ron, attended me in some passages of the course and cheered me up. They did a good job, Daniela´s 3rd place ist he proof.
I was really satisfied and enlighted, that I did it all, even I trained more my arms than my legs. Because I´m the inventer of the Dump-Bell-Couch-Sitting-Short-Endurance-Curl and in the closer future my arm will sprain my jersey. Last week, I rowed, more than 21km at Rowing-Meiers-Seewolf.
