NO HAY MAL QUE POR BIEN NO VENGA...

Friends,

In English, that Spanish quote means: "There is no misfortune that it doesn't come because of good"...let me quick explain.


Due to my ITBS injury, I could not run on Tai Tam Long Distance Aquathlon, 2 K swim and 14 K run...I tried until last night at home to test my running i the treadmill...without good result after 2 K my ITBS was heating too much...but, then, I decided to do at least Ocean Swim 2K which my time of 32'37'' in open water and with my new Orca wetsuit gave me first position in my Age Group!! totally unexpected...and I finished overall 17th out of 159 triathletes on the swim split...after finishing it and looking at the other guys how they were wearing their running shoes and starting to run...I just wanted to run...but could not!
I attach results:

Anyway, this Sunday I will try my third Half Marathon ever...and try first to finish it and if possible under 1h 55'...due to my ITBS.

Talk to you very soon,

"XTB" Xavi.
