First Assessment

posted at 08h53

Carry out an initial assessment of the 2013 season:
Two important competitions performed with pleasure and disappointment.
- Lisbon International Triathlon, Half distance, Saturday, May 4: A beautiful swimming in a lake artificial salt water and a bike on a 2x2 lane closed to traffic and virtually any flat. Finally a Running composed of four loops, which allows you to view family.
On race day, the heat makes its appearance, which earned me some cramping due to poor hydration. I'm guilty!
We took the opportunity to spend a week in Portugal, visit, and sunbathe

- Challenge Barcelona Half distance, Sunday, May 19: Support race at the European Championships. The swim was rough. Indeed, we swam in the sea and we can say that it rocked hard! Hilly bike course but good quality coating, which allowed to run in power. The pedestrian section taking place on the waterfront with arrival on the beach.
Do not look for my name in the rankings, downgraded to a penalty not performed. I'll explain it later.
3 day stay in Calella, with a lot of surprises (car impounded, phone not working). Despite this, we had a great holiday weekend.

The return was more difficult, as always with low temperatures and rain everyday. Out of the car in shorts and sandals at 5 ° C, this causes beyond the thermal shock, moral shock.

I attack my specific preparation France Ironman, who's next on June 23.
