….ironman & women

….. with 3,8km swimming, 180km on bike and finishing off with 42,195km..kicked off this morning at 7 am in Klagenfurt.

I just say RESPECT, I get exhausted by just watching it from a distance..

We are keeping our fingers crossed for Joe and Alex entering the competition today - may they be as successful as the German National Team was yesterday!

I believe that no matter if Germany reaches the final or not - they have clearly showed the world what football is all about and that they stand strong as a united team no matter challenge or success.

United are also my stone path and I since a couple of weeks back… the stones have been put pack, now in a more straight line, and yesterday the steps had do be re-cemented, as the ants had made their way through the previous cement, building a nice little cosy house underneath the stones. (don’t ask where they have gone now…the ants I mean..)  Next weekend moulding is on the agenda, some more cement to hold it in its place and then project should be completed…for now…

24°C in the lake  - 35°C outside… no matter what weather - there is always something to complain about. I am generally happy about the weather - however the ramping up from cold to warm could be more stable, enabling us to adjust…  The more fascinating thing is that every year in April - the newspapers and people talk about that:

-” Oh this year the spring is late, it will be an awful summer, worse than last year… ” and every year it’s the same procedure when summer arrives it seems that when the temperatures reach 30°, we kind of get surprised, forget all about what was said a couple of month back repeat this process the following year again…

So long  - stay safe on those bikes and wear a helmet..
