Wo ist das Snitzchel Restaurant...?
Today I was informed my language still didn´t justify a movie like finish, you know with masses of people awaiting me (the star) , and lets just say it was not my fluency in Spanish that was causing the problem.
I was (again) pushed to the limit and today we managed again further. Probably roughly 13k in 1 hour and 6 minutes, no stopping, just zoning in full speed (read: my pace!) ahead. Again the car was parked up the hill and hence my "language" problem. I felt it so badly, my legs, after 3 days of super training (in total having run now over 35k in less than a week), and going that last bit of the hill, that when I finally reached the car a lot of F words came rolling out, out of no where...(hmmmmm interesting).
Also, on a different note, why am I so stubborn and competitive, can you blame parents for that? Because why do I have this inner need to challenge people to run a 10k with me? Both VRB´s (yeah they earned their right back into the inner circle again) agreed to do a 10k race. That shall be fun :-) One suddenly sounds superfit and by the sounds of it has done millions of 10k races and is throwing in some "high altitude" running in Chicago this week, and the other wants it to be at the end of october, not because he thinks he can beat me then, but because he reckons he can finish by then. He got injured working in his garden..I mean, what is the world coming too hahaha.
Two more runs to go...Thu and Sat before I am flying back home...
Speak soon and take care

PS the title is not to indicate my impression of the German Tourist in Spain, but more a reflexion of the state of my brain after half a week of training levels way above my comfort zone
