My athlete Ruben completed his first long distance at the Challenge Barcelona over the weekend. My heartfelt congratulations!
Meticulously as management consultants are, he prepared intensively for six months. At first it worried me a lot, as he couldn't crawl 100 meters at a time in the spring. We also had a lot of catching up to do when it came to running. When cycling, however, he was fit as he has already ridden across Africa on a mountain bike.
After 1:17 hours of swimming, 5:28 hours on the bike and 4:33 hours over the final run, he crossed the finish line overjoyed in a total time of 11:25 hours.
But that was not all. He and his girlfriend then drove back to Switzerland in the car from Barcelona overnight to arrive at the office punctually at 8:30 a.m. on Mondays. Otherwise it was probably not possible on vacation. A really long, long day! 🙂
have a nice weekend!
