Römerman
2007- two Pirates in the Electoral Palatinate
On July 21st 2007, the third event of the Rhine-Neckar Triathlon
Cup took place in Ladenburg. A 1.1m/1,8km swim, a 26m/42km
hilly bike and a 6.2m/10km run were on the program. After
the informal meeting on the competition, my weary eye spied
an ally…
Alex was there too!
Then we took a boat up the Neckar to start the swim in the
water.
And since there was quite a current that day, the first part
of the event was quickly taken care of… And here comes Alex…
.
....whom I got to see almost solely from behind.....
I jumped into my shoes and onto my bike and was off towards
the hills, where some nasty parts with an up to 16% incline
were waiting for me.
Finally it was time for the run - two laps around the nearby
park, where you kept coming towards each other. The finish
line was in the Römer Stadium, after the last lap.
Result: it was a great event and organized well as always!
