This fell out of the sky yesterday:

Apparently I qualified myself for the European and world championship in 2020 standard distance triathlon.

How crazy is this?

 

Sunday I participated in the 1/4 triathlon of Kapelle op den Bos, which is a qualifier race. My goal was to reach the finish ;-) Apparently I did better and was top 3 in my age group. Good enough to earn a slot!

SO EK is in estland and WK is in Canada next summer. Let's see if I can make it to one of the events.

 

As for last sunday:

swimming: 1.5km; 25min, this is slow, but there was a rather persistent negative flow in the stream and wet suits were not allowed. 

Bike: 40km in 1h06min. Was OK, the small slopes where killing me.

Running: 10km in 44min, finally a decent run!

My transition times have improved massively. I still need some work on the first minutes of biking and running, I tend to start way to fast.

 

That's it for now, now recuperation for a couple of days, and than up to the next event (august 3th / 1/8 sprint for fun in wuustwezel!)

 

Cheers,

ToAd
