New Madrid triathlon calendar in team time-trial mode. In principle this is a format that attracts me so much as at the end I could not go to El Barraco, I ended up pointing at me.
triathlon worst came at first, before you start. Popeeeeee tritraje wore new judges said they did not compete podóan leave because it was the same color as the old. The truth is that we saw it pretty bad but after pleading to let him get through.
try to talk a bit of tactics to follow, but between us and disaster ns even knew some (in fact I met Antonio and Ruben on the same day) I knew it would be a bit chaotic.
In swimming, the idea was that the best swimmers (Pancho, Antonio Ruben and) we protected the Worst (Charles and myself.) Nothing else I'll be out to catch Superconcentrated Pancho's feet ... "This is not escapes me at balls." And the truth is that I stood behind it with no problems but when I looked back I saw that Carlos was running behind so I yelled and got off the pace a bit. Before reaching the first buoy and we had spent two teams but we get on with it, trying to be grouped as much as possible and properly oriented. At the end was a comfortable swim, exiting the water in 17 'fixed and marking the worst part of all teams started well! heh, heh.
We take the bike to win, especially Carlos who wanted to get even swimming. It was two laps at Olympic circuit, ie up Garabitas. The first climb we do a good pace, with Carlos and Ruben Antonio and pulling hard and Pancho suffering but enduring. We see how far we are cutting a team and gives us a blast but when we reach is that it is a women's team And we better! In the flat rolled forward and tried to pass strong but I think I do well because then I see that open holes. Clearly we do not know to relay, which gives it is put sticks :-))
The second rise will Rubén pulling all the time and I see very strong. Climbed faster than in the previous and Antonio Pancho and not give everything to stay. With more grief than glory arrived at the T2 and, although I thought we had done worse, get left behind to 6 teams in the cycling part.
started running and I feel great so I get to shoot a challenging but manageable pace. Then Carlos takes the lead and sets the pace. I see Pancho and Antonio are paying some effort made with the bike, but we all had very clear is that we would not leave anyone shot, we had to get together to target the 5. We do the first lap in 10'06'', very well. We follow the same pace and having a little bit. We see that the other teams were literally pushing each other so that Carlos, who left here will be put to it, so we get no slow down one iota. Finally we head down the home straight, shake hands (and we better because the previous team we only got 3 seconds !!!!) and we went together on goal.
the end very good personal feelings and a real pleasure to have shared equipment with other armadillos. Besides competing with a lot cool your fellow club and not against them, as usual. Next year should be installed at least a couple of teams, and will sink, ha, ha, ha.
Finally a word of the cracks with the same team that touched me:
-Carlos M: chela knew swimming was going to make uphill out of the water but wanting to give everything and help as they come to the comeback.
-Reuben, a very complete trialeta, we saw very strong in all three sectors but especially on the bike.
-Antonio: good swimming, a pity that we were a drag on the sector. Cycling and running like a champ suffered for not staying and end up throwing began.
-Pancho: probably the best bike of his life. He knew how to suffer for no sag and go on the computer. See
