10/10/10 – 30km!

t is 5am and I am full of nervous energy. I haven’t done much in the way of exercise since Wednesday when I ran 16km that included 4 x 1000m, all below the stipulated 4-minutes. I am still hankering to do more than 30km but 34km is considered too much and 32km leaves me outside a villa so that is a closed subject. Needless to say much of the week was spent talking to various participants with regards to their strategy and more importantly trying to coordinate rides in and out. Even Claudia called me at 9pm last night just to ensure that I had eaten my pasta, strategize and send me to bed early. Needless to say, I have been very good this week. Even on Friday when Sebas invites us to play Truco, the four of us cannot finish 2-bottles of wine. GusM
