Hard characters

A two-week stay in Spain ends. On Wednesday, the team
will come to Poznan. Unfortunately, the 1500 km plan won’t be executed. Since
yesterday, weather conditions do not allow our cyclists for long workouts.
Today, they were surprised by the hail and a sharp drop in temperature from 18
to 4 degrees. The sky in one moment was covered with clouds, then it started to
rain and hail. Only 30 km to the hotel, but it is a big challenge in such
weather conditions. It required from our riders not only a lot of physical but
also mental effort. I can only imagine what they felt, driving at a speed of 60
km/h, in soaked clothes and a temperature of 4 degrees. I must say that the
cycling club should not refuse assistance in this situation. The three cyclists
were forced to return to the hotel alone after the club's head didn’t respond
to their requests. I think that it was extremely irresponsible, because they
were exposed  to  health- related problems but also to the risk of an
accident due to the slippery surface of the road.

14 days in Spain

Two weeks of vacation, for me and my mountainbiker. For 14 days I don't have to think to go to the store to buy bananas and prepare dinner in time. And what about J? He went to camp with his Cycling Team-Eurobike Kaczmarek Electric. Plan to carry out: 1500 km in 14 days. They have already 500 km for the last 5 days. Every day about one hundred. They call it a warm-up, because now they plan to go to the mountains. Can you imagine a  20 km uphill drive? I would give up after 1 km. You must  be a total freak to go on holiday to sunny Spain and deliberately cause suffering and exhaustion of the body. However, he is not alone! In the hotel where they live there are several cycling teams, and this small town- Loret de Mar is at this time a cycling town, not one of the Spanish resorts.

Average person, average day

The year has 365 days, including 30 days without training. Sounds unbelievable?

 How is it possible that a girl who does not like sport is able to be in a relationship 

with such a sports fanatic? I don’t understand it until today. 

Someone will think that it's cool, I have a guy with a big biceps and six pack. 

However, living with a cyclist is a huge challenge, not only physical but also personal. 

Friday:

-“What are you doing now?! It’s 11.30 pm!“ 

-Jacob: “ I’m going running!”. 

You will never imagine what happens usually at this time in our home.

I spend next hour in the kitchen  trying to stay awake. 

I got up at 5 o’clock  in the morning, I was at the university and then at work. 

Only one hour and I can fall asleep. But now, 

I take a Cookbook with recipes for professional cyclists and 

I cook  two meals for the next day. Fortunately, tomorrow is Saturday. 

Saturday: bike training. 

100 kilometers in 3 hours? No problem! 

-Jacob: “Honey, I'll be back for dinner.”

- But it’s  -10 degrees outside!

And I hear only a sound of door closing.

Maybe an ordinary person will think it's crazy,

 but that's what the most average day looks like with my boyfriend. 

A day without sport is a day that should not be included in his biography.
