Copa Pirineus
08 May 2011 | International | Racing | Blog
After national team selection I travelled on to Pau in the France Pyrenees. I love training and racing here since there are a lot of different courses and the new course is really fast and challenging. I had a nice week of training but got ill on Friday. I decided to race anyway but it wasn't to eventful.
From Tuesday till Friday we have been training on the old and new course in Pau and in Orthez. All these different types of water made it good fun. I was happy with the short block of training I did with my coach Han but then got a severe cold on Friday.
Maybe racing wasn't the best thing to do but I hoped to survive the heats and then be fit again for semi finals. It just didn't turn out this way.... well let's just say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger......
Now it's home for two more weeks, then National Championships in Zoetermeer and afterwards a week of training in Bratislava.
