Bohu & Robert & kids…

check out the poster I got (photo by Ales Prášil)

…but only in H21A (not E).

The reason for that is that my ranking is not so very good at the moment (60.), and only 40 best plus “wild cards” and foreigners are allowed to run the E class in Czech Cups races, thus on Saturday there was no free place for me.
On Sunday, there prob. would have been, however, I have chosen to run in A class weeks before, as I did not dare to test my current shape at 15.5km course, 13 km is enough.

This Saturday I’m off to Cape Town for a week of “holidays”. Unfortunately WITHOUT B&A!

The weekend has luckily started already on THURSDAY, thanks to the Labour Day.

We had our Vappurastit in Doksy, where at least the organizers must have had a rough night. Start was delayed by 45 min, no start list, problems with Si. Somebody has DELETED the whole race at the computer But the terrain and the course was indeed very nice, so who cares after all…

I was smashed by Petr Lostman nearly by 3 min! (did approx. 2 min mistakes).

Bohu could finally do some sport (inline skates) after being sick (ear inflammation) for almost three weeks. Kind of relieve for all of us

morning trip to Sloni kameny. Out of nowhere stones like that???!!!

I have survived 73min of race running, barely though. Lostman way out of my league again… but what could have I expected after winter “training”

PS: what really pisses me the most on Czech races so far is the map on the start NOT in the plastic. So it always takes me good 15 secs to put the map into my own one (competition time already ticking) and then finally I can start running!

I simply don’t get it!

SUNDAY

bike trip to Jizerky and packing…
Tomorrow leaving to Zell am See HOLIDAY!!!
