oh
yeah right, the black forest ultra...
report: with the ultra long marathon, 72m/116km, came the ultra-long
journey to the marathon... we went through stuttgart did a little
sightseeing, tübingen too. this was not voluntary. apparently
my boyfriend was not able to read the map all to well, due to
my driving skills. i would get nauseous riding shotgun with
myself too...
we had 4 whole hours of sleep in the car and a good breakfast
not too far away from the starting point. the race started at
7:30am and was 72m/116km long and even though i had ridden this
race 2 years earlier, i didn't remember a thing. that probably
had to do with the time of day, since that's when i usually
dream about nice trails and other things, instead of sitting
on my saddle. unfortunately, the man with the mallet came after
about 50m/80km, even though i was going slow, drinking enough,
etc., but it was 1100°F/38°C in the shade.
since i'm registered for the euro bike extremes i had to hang
in there, so that's what i did. i finished after 8:30h... i
spent the way back home sleeping in the passenger seat.
