Triathlon in Steinbeck

On sunday all the endurance sports men met in Steinbeck to complete the Shortman. The swim start were at 11:05 o`clock right in the Mittellandkanal. Almost 90 triathlete´s started for the 500m swim course.




After 10 minutes I were pulled out of the waters and jumped on my bike. About 30k´s were to complete with a uphill part 0f 3k´s with almost 12%, right after the start not an easy thing to manage. You had th ride 2 rounds and with a velocity of 72,5 km/h you rode downhill….


The only enemy of us were the wind… I was 21th when I pulled on my running shoes, and I were able to pass a few, so I crossed the finish line after 1:22h.

The winner needed only 1:14 and could be my son…


Overall place 13 and 2nd place in my age-group 40-44


At the 11th of july I will start at the triathlon in Langenbeck.
