How Long Are Your Capillaries

Race of Mercy

Last Sunday I made
my third markets in the city of Barcelona. It's a special race for me because I was the first. Two years ago we began to discover this world.
had stayed with Albert, Daniel, David and Richard. The first three would go after the race, a la Mar Bella to swim a little.
Five out together but with different objectives: Dani David Hare had wanted to debut at the distance down to 40 '. The two made a down carrerón Leftover 39:30. Albert, Richard and I, in principle we would go together. Albert had spoken to remain below 43 'and was satisfied.
Before leaving, Ricard says we will go with us halfway, she started to climb up. It gives the output and make the first km in 4'12. Here we face the Gran Via and is already beginning to run more comfortable. We can increase the pace and we stuck between 4'06 and 4'08. I feel so good, but not overrun. At km 5, Ricard, as already announced, change the pace. Albert follows. I prefer to endure as I was and quickly lost sight of. I doubt fall here, I thought I was going down the times, but in the following kilometric see that I maintain the same pace.
Passing Plaça Catalunya Joan advance to ask me how I go. I say with a not much left gesture, but gritted his teeth and shortened the steps thinking that they were near Sepulveda and Paral.lel two subidita who noticed her legs last year. The truth is that the time invested in these two segments was quite regular over the whole race.
the end, held at 41:30 with the position 560 of nearly 8500 runners. Very pleased to have kept a very consistent throughout the race.
Another source of satisfaction is the realization of all the people I met during these two years. I said hello to a bunch of fellow "vice": Joan, Rafa, Albert d'Esparreguera, Albert R. correcats als, the people of Ripon ....
All in all, I have to say that I have been almost a week with a bad cold that I almost left without Mercè. I hope I pass it now! I have to be to stop that Sunday is quoted and large: Triathlon B of Banyoles (2200-80-20).
A big occasion go with two new toys:
I hope will help me to end with dignity as possible!
