beginning of 2011 season review Triathlon 2010 season
My 2010 season was great! Looking back, sports on the past year I have almost all destinations within my second Trathlonsaison achieved. It was my first season with goals.
In winter was the goal, the winter run series to run completely in Rheinzabern. 10, 15 and 20 km in the four-week rhythm. On ice and snow through the woods in the cold wind across the fields of the Palatinate Rhine valley. Because of the wintry conditions, I have paid too much attention to the times.
This was followed by two half-marathons, Bienwald and German wine road. 2 Both almost in each case for hours. Target time left is less than 2 hours. There are many reasons. Take it not so tragic. The Finisherkuss after the finish in Kandel was the beginning of a beautiful affair of the heart and is definitely more important than 4 minutes somewhere missed in the forest.
followed the triathlon camp in Mallorca. My first meeting on Ute and some team members. The week was great and there was a lot of fun. I was just a little clueless. It was my first camp of its kind I could swim so far only chest. Learn front crawl was announced, pull it up over 1500 meters in the summer of the target. The technical training of Ute were very good and feasible.
On 1 August in Offenburg I'm durchgekrault 1.5 kilometers. I was extremely blurry but twice, this is collect as experience. It was not necessarily easier path, but a successful, has paid off.
Sometimes I was wondering if everything is still ok with me as I jumped in the summer before work at 5:30 am in the lake. My answer for me with a grin on such self-questions: halt triathlon. Or when I have people on the lake waved wildly. I was surprised. It was a warning, there was a thunderstorm and had not noticed the flashes.
The bike training and the tours were full of fun. I liked it very well and have already booked for 2011. The instructions that I received were invaluable.
The routes were great and Mallorca is a beautiful sport Island
In May there was the team meeting in Kraichgau. It was nice to meet some of you and tell. The bowling in the connection to the food was great and really funny. Too bad that there live in the area of Mannheim not so many UM team members. Sometimes I see our logo on team clothing, I greet Anyway, harvest often puzzled looks.
After a mountain biking event at the Gäsbockbikern in the Palatinate Forest, we went racing with friends in the Pyrennes. Our base was in Monosque. We drove about 700 kilometers within a week and came to just under 12 000 meters. Fantastic small streets, small cafes and Savoir livre. We went to Signal de Lure. some adventurous roads and a wind that made me afraid. On the bike, or even next to the edge. I've never had to be blown away feeling the same. And I fulfilled a dream: the entrance to Mount Ventoux. 20 kilometers, about 1,700 meters. Original Tour de France. After almost 2 hours I was up, in between huge Magenpprobleme. Probably too much Powerbar. It was pretty cool up there.
and then took off my triathlon season. I was on larger and smaller competitions here. Sprint to Olympic. I always had fun, but are the small events warm, comfortable and have something original. Hardly Gezacker because of wrong finisher shirt, bike check-out, warm drinks, or lack of ... . For me it's at these events to the sport. Sometimes I have the impression that it is confused with Disney World.
What I sometimes wondered were the many remaining race packets at the application if the weather was bad. Or the history of the triathlon in Frankfurt. A colleague got in for a regular expression in the kidney DRLG boat. There was already an athlete. On the question of where it hit him had, he said that it the water was too cold today. Is my opinion wrong, it is the triathlon also to sun, rain, wind, cold and hot? I find it exciting to me to deal with the elements.
In the swim a lot was going on. Panic attacks. Finding a suitable Neos. Good and bad water. Bruises. Scratches. The orientation found. Or what was the point made by Ute and sometimes blind to swim and see how it goes? Somehow I have a decent left-hand twist ... . However, the swimming times have improved steadily in the coming winter will be in the pool, pass on the gym mat and in front of the mirror a lot.
Cycling me a lot of fun and was always very good. Again, the times were ok for my circumstances. 20 km about 35 minutes, 46 kilometers around 1:25. Over the season I was able to implement the advice of Emanuel from Mallorca and they have understood. In Offenburg through the vineyards, I learned what it means to shoot himself. go mountain I was accustomed, I can even shoot high. If it was not just the 10 kilometers to the port was.
running. Yes, I'm really happy. 'm Already there too much technology training and it has already. Slowly I approach the 50 Minutes. People when I, the 50 minutes somewhere in the spring Knacke, then there is Vino Rosso 2011, a round in Mallorca. The 5 miles I've done it before in 24:18 minutes.
possessions in between also made a duathlon. A small 5-20-5. My goodness club, as it will go and that is a different number. The last running again did hurt quite a bit.
Looking back, I'm a bit proud of myself. 4 years ago I was close to 100 pounds and sport knew from TV. Sporting talent is still turned up little, but with appropriate Training, I can at least salvage something.
I have recently taken at the start my gym teacher from the year 1987. I think he has to get today is not that he has met the unsportsmanlike students of his career at the start of a triathlon.
Also I learned that recovery is a very important element during the season and is now at end of season'm glad to come to rest. The energy and power is finite and that life is not only in months 12 to the sport.
Objective in this long winter units are quiet and I'm not with to-weight in the winter. Have been a few starts in November / December planned. For motivation.
I am looking forward to the 2011 season, Mallorca has already been posted and see you at the latest there again.
It is important to thank so many people who have accompanied me through the season. Beginning with the members of the UM team that I have met and spoken; Ute Mückel, with all of their efforts and tips, Philip, with whom I have spent countless miles together on the road bike, Simone bridge for running training; the Road Crew in France, Arne and many of Foris triathlon scene for all the info and the volunteers and organizers of the competition, the spectators cheering on the rear sports, my family and Ingrid, may be held for .
