Just quick update, about 3 topics:
1. I have rethinked my next challenge and moved it earlier to August 22nd, 70.3 Ironman Cobra Philippines, if my ITBS and training is enough to race it under 7 hours...as my first HIM event!
2. Friends, please, I would like all of you to help if you can to one request from one of my Dragons mates for one person affected some years ago by Leukemia that she needs us to vote to get a place for that TRI-CITY-ATHLON race! I attach her message...and link to vote...she needs all our support!
"Hi everyone,
I have a special request to make. My little sister has 'entered' me
into the Eurostar Tri-City-Athlon this coming September 14th. The 3
different disciplines are being held in 3 different cities - the swim
is in Paris , the bike leg is in Brussels and the run leg is in
Regents
Park in lovely London town!
The other slight difference to this event is that I have to gather
enough votes to firstly be placed within the top 50 entries. Then, a
panel of judges will pick 20 competitors to participate in the event.
If I am lucky enough to survive the first round and be chosen as one
of the competitors, I will use the Tri-City-Athlon to raise money for
the Anthony Nolan Trust, a UK based leukaemia charity that I have
worked closely with over the past few years (http://
www.anthonynolan.org.uk/).
It's with this in mind that I ask for a few minutes of your time to
vote for me!!
You can click on the link below to vote:
(either click on the right where it says LOGIN WITH FACEBOOK, or
create a profile on the Eurostar page and then look for my entry -
filter MOST VOTES and I should be at the bottom of the 1st page, at
least I was this morning!)
Only one vote is allowed per person so please feel free to forward
onto friends and family!!! Voting ends on the 8th June.
Thank you very much!
Kitty"

Hola Xavi...!! He vist el teu post i ja he deixat el meu vot per la Kitty... Espero que aconsegueixi el seu objectiu... Endavant...!! I també desitjo que el teu genoll dret vagi millorant mica en mica...!! Sort..!!
ReplyDeleteJo crec que a l'agost hi ha temps de sobres per a recuperar-se de la cintilla. I baixar de 7 hores a un Half és més que asequible. I de 6 i de 5... depenent del perfil.
ReplyDeleteSalut i ànims
I just voted for her and hope she does really well. And I am so glad your ITB is behaving itself.
ReplyDeleteHola Xavi; a veces pienso que sí, que tal vez me estoy pasando con el número de kilómetros que estoy haciendo últimamente, pero la verdad es que hoy por hoy es lo que quiero hacer y de momento mi organismo lo está asimilando sin ningún problema y lo más importante, al menos para mí, es que estoy disfrutando y me divierte; ya veremos cómo se desarrollan los acontecimientos más adelante; un abrazo muy fuerte y mucho ánimo, nos seguimos leyendo.
ReplyDeleteBuenos entrenos y animo con esa competicion. EN lo que respecta al otro asunto, hecho. CUenta con mi voto por esta gran accion y espero que esta personal pueda participar.
ReplyDeleteHola Xavi, buen reto te has puesto para Agosto, espero que tus ITBS te respeten y puedas entrenar sin problemas.
ReplyDeleteHe votado en la pagina que indicas a favor de Kitty.
Saludos
Quique
