Triathlon Training in Switzerland |
[2010 starts with good resolutions as always. Let's follow my training towards the triathlon season.] Update: it's now 2012 and I race in Geneva! yay! |
On Sunday, I celebrated the first race of 2011 as well as the end of my competitive x-country season by participating to the Marciagranparadiso in cogne, just less than 45km. Sunny day and a pretty good snow for this year’s conditions, the result was quite good as I completed my race in 2h48’, just a few seconds less than last year (but on a different course, probably a bit shorter). A good result also considering that I broke my ski fix a few kms after the beginning! Overall a splendid day of fun with nice friends and family. Marciagranparadiso is surely one of the best occasions to visit Valle d’Aosta during winter!
Ps: Kudos to an incredible girl, who completed the race with probably less than 100k of training and only x-country skiing since 2008!
On Monday I did some running (8k) at relaxed pace to recover. Tuesday was a rainy day and I spent some time inside, with crunches, abs and just less than one hour of biking.
