Jus a day at the office for Team Athlete Fitting ...
A guy named Chris warned me that he would file a complaint with the International Board for Regular Blug Updating if i didn’t post something new real soon. Well, you’re right, Chris. Absolutely. But at times, it’s becoming a bit to much for one person to hack. I’m still awaiying some pictures from the photographers, but here’s the short story on last weeks race. The announced Record Race from John Meuleman’s team didn’t start of too good. Twelve hours before the start they lost two runners. So in the end, both time trial rider Dave Bruylandts and record swimmer Jan Seryn were going to have put on their running shoes and get dirty twice… Jan just annihilated the field in the swim. In his trademark style, technically superior with powerful and seemingly slow strokes, he mad a gap of over a minute by the first 500 meter turning point. After that he speeded up a little. And then some … By the time he got of the water, the lead was already quite comfortable. On the bike, start rider Joren Segers blasted away so fast that he even took the aid stations by suprise, passing the more than 20 minutes ahead of the fastest schedule. Than Joren Segers and Dave Bruylants broadened the gap even more, before Willem Van Den Eynde delivered his ‘Coup the Grâce’ , averaging over 44 kilometers per hour. Dave Bruylandst topped his time trial with a 38 minute 10K run. Jan Seryns also amazed the crowd with his second top performance of the day and Dries Busselots scorching end run bought the hole Athlete Fitting team time enough to shower, change and have dinner before the second team even came into view. The new record time: 7:44!
