LD test and Neo offer !!

This blog article was published on May 11, 2009

Hi Guys,
the long distance test on Saturday was a complete success, with 23 women and men taking part. The weather was great too, only one thing was wrong, namely that I couldn't start
🙁
What a bummer, it started on Thursday, Friday, the day before, I got a fever, that was it! Although I had briefly considered again in the evening whether I should try it after all, I finally saw that it would not only have brought nothing, but would also have been dangerous.
You hear so often about athletes who train despite infection and fever and finally wake up three meters below ground with an inflammation of the heart muscle.
So, stay calm and relax.
The end of the song was this; Thursday, Friday and Saturday ZERO training, 5kg gained 😉 Only on Sunday I was able to do an easy bike tour again.
Nonetheless, Dorian represented me well at the LD test and taught all the other participants to be afraid, at the latest when he started the final run at a 3:20 pace !! and then really ran through this pace 15km, just like that in training ...
I probably can't even do that in a 10km race!
So if Dorian starts properly in Roth (he is starting the long distance for the first time this year), then some of the people up there can “dress warmly”.
Many more tackled the test on Saturday MUCH too quickly, only to break in at the end. The only good thing is, it was just a test and not the main competition! 😉 So, to everyone who does not want to carry out an LD test before their first long distance, but still want to organize the race optimally, just one tip: "Approach behavior and only put everything into the balance at the end." The majority of every race, does it the other way around.
By the way, yesterday I was in the Roth open-air swimming pool and helped with the neo test swimming. No, I didn't swim them, but I helped the participants of the “Challenge Getting to Know-You Day” into their suits 😉 Approx. 120 participants drove the challenge round yesterday with some professionals and then came to the outdoor pool for the neo-test. Was a really funny thing!

Who, by the way, still needs a Neo for the coming season, just write me a non-binding email to mkrell@gmx.de
For Green Turtle Neos (according to the current Tri-Mag test, the ones with the most buoyancy !!) I can offer you very cheap deals, also for last year's models that are even more interesting in terms of price. In the end it works like this, you ask, I send the Neo to you, you swim for a test and decide whether you take it or send it back.

So, after these last days of involuntary rest, I'm now back to training "hot as fries fat" and will now slowly increase the volume in May. I think the pace fits so far, at least when running. Now I just have to bring it over the necessary distance.

skin in!

  1. Manno man, and I was curious like a speedy bow how you've fared 😉

    Then I hope that you have recovered well and that things are moving forward now.

  5. Hi,

    3: 20 on 15 km… oh man, I really still have a long way to go…. The current training status is so 6:00 a.m. for a few km… 🙁

    Praise to you for holding back, I only went through a 10k New Year's Eve with a fever and that was really no joy!

    LG, karla

  6. Hey Karla,

    don't worry, Dorian is still young. At some point it will also become slower 🙂

    But now I have to complain, so a 10 in a fever, not a competition fever, is really dangerous! Your pulse is almost at its maximum while running. But now you're more sensible 😉

    good luck!
    Michael
    PS:
    Only last weekend there was a death at the Ingolstadt Marathon ...
