As you might know, I am writing about training for a 10 kilometer running race and my first triathlon in September. Here is my new note:

Okay, I think it is official: I am not a bad runner, I think I can survive cycling and I might be the worst swimmer in the world. I have attended four swimming training practices of a triathlon club in Utrecht and I have done or understood the following:

  • A brick seems to have better floating and swimming capabilities than me
  • I drink about half a pool worth of water every practice (don't do it, makes you burp)
  • Swimming in an open pool at 9 in the morning is not a warm occasion
  • After a training, I shiver so much I find it rather hard to com-m-m-un-n-n-i-c-c-c-ate
  • My maximum distance right now is about 50 meters, while next month I will have to be able to do 500 meters in open sea
Honestly, since I have been running for about a year and a half, I was considering myself to be in decent shape, and I thought I wasn't a bad runner. Now though, I understand I am at the bottom of the foodchain in Triathlon World. Good realization, there's work to do! 
Added you'll find a little video of the 2008 version triathlon I am planning to do in September. I am scared, intimidated and ready for more training.

I have terrible news!!

My dear cat Frits which I had for 5 years and I loved so much died yesterday

He fell from a 4th floor balcony and probably hit his head on the way down!

I'm so devastated about this!

I miss him already!
