Co mnie zainteresowało to pojawiajace się w tekście informacje (wskazujące na duże doświadczenie członków teamu) i refleksje (nad startami i ich sensem gdy nękaja kontuzje i wycofy).
Home advantage in Scotland 2007 was meant to be the year when everything came together but another injury forced the teams retirement and it was at this point that I decided that I could no longer commit so much to a sport that was giving me so little back in return. Why build a years training around something where variables outside of your control could dictate the outcome so heavily? It was time for a much needed break.
O treningu:
The four of us has not raced together as a team before but we had a very strong support crew and we looked tough, experienced and fit, on paper – with 3 of us just completing a 2000km road bike ride over 106 of the highest Alpine cols.
O tym jak poradzili sobie z mapami i strategią :-)
Our high spirits were to be slightly tempered at the pre-race briefing when the format was outlined and we were handed 64 maps. That's a lot of paper and digesting the route in its entirety was simply not possible. The grand strategy would have to wait until later and we ceremoniously dumped the weighty pile into support-crew-strategist James' lap.
O wymogach trasy.
The Race Director had made it clear that the first half of the race would be physical and he didn't disappoint. Hundreds of Kilometres of trekking interspersed with brutal bike stages – the first containing nearly 6000m of ascent over a distance of just 100km - enough to make Lance Armstrong wet his knickers. The pace was high...
Zresztą poczytajcie sami.
Pozdrawiam.
Maciej.
