End of Season Goals

Now that yesterday's frustration has somewhat dissappeared, it is time to make a first assessment of the Gerardmer weekend. On a positive note, I can say that my half-wit race has nevertheless enabled me to determine my goals and expectations for Challenge Barcelona. No beating around the bush, here they are. For the swim: 1:18, for the ride: 4:30 and for the run: 3:10. The run prediction might be slightly off, but the other two are spot-on, I'm sure of that. So I'm expecting a result between 8:58 and 9:15 in Calella. You can bet on it, I know I will.
