The last day in the training camp has dawned. Today it rains here for the first time, in two weeks. So time for me to leave here again 😉
After a week of good training, I have covered around 800 kilometers by bike and 90 kilometers by running. I usually cycle that much in a month, but it was fun 🙂 I didn't swim a single meter for that, my shoulder still gives me problems.
In the footsteps of Jan Ullrich
The day before yesterday I tried Mallorca's most famous ascent, the Puig Major (is it written that way?) Jan Ulrich once climbed the 14 kilometers, with an average ascent of 7%, in an amazing 31 minutes. So what could I do but try it myself?
I was able to outrun Sven, my pursuer, after 2 kilometers, but cracking the 31 minutes, no chance;)) After this time I still had 4km of mountain in front of me ... laugh. Completely ready and sweaty down to my socks, I came panting up the last climb after 43 minutes.
Incidentally, Luke did it in 39 minutes, no wonder his bike weighs 20kg less 😉
Sven and Chris, my pursuers 😉
Today it's all about easy stretching and running. Maybe I'll finally be able to read a few pages, I haven't gotten around to it yet.
interview
If you're up in the next few days http://www.netzathleten.de/ If you look in the “Triathlon Channel”, I can see a video interview there in which I talk to sports journalist Joerg Birkel about the topic of my book: Triathlon for professionals.
happy Easter…

Hi Krelli,
Two weeks ago I also started up the Puig twice. But if I remember correctly we were 4 minutes slower than you!
I would have been interested in what you would have needed for sa Calobra 🙂 (we had 37 minutes)
best regards
Martin
Hi Martin,
you were still very fast !!
Interesting question, unfortunately I did not stop, or do not even know whether I went up there. Unfortunately, I don't know my way around this well yet.
dig in!
