Week 27

Leuk om te melden, een rolletje tape van,  https://kttapebenelux.com gekregen, gaan we proberen. Ik heb al iemand getapet ermee en die had er baat bij!

Wat lopen betreft gaan we maar niet klagen, zaterdag 34 km met totaal geen motivatie, dan toch weer 100 + deze week. Dinsdag op de baan een onderlinge wedstrijd, soort cross op en rond de baan. Daar liep ik boven verwachting en niet waar ik dacht te lopen, dus echt helemaal slecht is het ook niet.

Woensdag met mijn maatje rustig aan gedaan, hij heeft er net de Swissman extreme opzitten en die liep als een tierelier!

week 26

Het blijft aanmodderen, lang lopen is nog niet van toepassing. Bij een uurtje of 2 is het wel genoeg geweest en kracht ben ik heel veel kwijt. Dat de kracht weg was wist ik al in Texel, alleen ik ben nu nog meer kwijt en een rondje bos onder slechte omstandigheden is al heftig nu.

Het Sparta verhaal wordt met de dag eigenlijk alleen maar slechter zo! Ik had nog een beetje hoop.

Alles wat nu achter me ligt en gebeurd is komt natuurlijk niet zo maar vanzelf. Ik heb alles even op een rijtje gezet en ben eerlijk genoeg om te zeggen dat ik in Texel en Steenbergen gewoon mazzel heb gehad. Gezien de start dit jaar en zo snel terug komen met die km! Ook privé is er natuurlijk best wel wat gebeurt dat ik nu eigenlijk pas aan het verwerken ben.

We gaan gewoon rustig weer opbouwen en ik heb nog niks in de planning, kan zo veranderen, wie weet wat ik nog tegen kom.

De elfstedentocht volgend jaar staat in ieder geval wel erop, ook probeert iemand me mee te krijgen naar de Zugspitze trail, zie zijn blog: http://triathlon.ict-oke.com

Hij heeft ook al een fantastische ervaring opgedaan in Zwitserland, de bikkel.

week 25

Nou daar is hij weer! Allereerst het slechte nieuws, Sparta is over!

Vandaar ook een tijdje geen berichten, ik kon het even niet opbrengen om het te melden. De blessure is eigenlijk te lastig en te heftig geweest om te lopen. Nu is het ergste achter de rug en loop ik ongeveer 100km. per week. Normaal gesproken had ik er minimaal 150 moeten lopen met loopjes van 60 a 80 km per keer.

Het is niet anders en ik heb het er erg moeilijk mee. De kans opnieuw ingeloot worden is erg klein en dus moet ik mezelf direct kwalificeren. De kosten zijn ook natuurlijk iets die meespelen om het volgend jaar niet te gaan doen, inschrijfgeld €520.= zijn kwijt en de vakantie er omheen is eigenlijk ook niet meer nodig, daar kun je veel leuke dingen voor doen.

Week 21

Balen en nog eens balen, het is toch iets heftiger dan gedacht. De klachten komen eigenlijk van  dezelfde oorzaak als vorige keer. Alleen is het nou links en is er gelukkig niks serieus  beschadigd.Nu nog meer geduld hebben. Zondag was alles pijn vrij en ben ik gaan proberen, maar naar 1 km was het feestje al over. Meerdere oefeningen gekregen en nog meer geduld opbrengen.

Als alternatief nu maar bergop wandelen op de loopband, gebeurt in Griekenland ook, doe ik nog iets nuttigs

Yes it was / is a muscle that is bullying! There were some knots in the piriformes. Menno took them out with dry needling and now do not do anything for 2 days. Thursday we go for it again, if everything is okay, of course

week 19

Beautiful week to start, Steenbergen 12 hours! Go walking with the aim of testing the load for the Spartathlon, now a nice test. Started well, maybe too soon, but afterwards you can walk at a pretty flat pace. Kees L and Hans with Maaike came for a second look, super course. Just when Hans and Maaike were there I had a dip, but I do not know what happened, the pace came back and I went again. The lap times are afterwards quite flat, 2 rounds with the dip. I did not expect anything and said I was walking for 120 km, but then I walked 3 and that will not let you go, a total of 132 and a bit! Super pleased a 3 place, a pr and a national record at 12 o'clock.

The nice thing is that I doubted 3 weeks ago at Texel if I would do the 12o after the bad start this year. Now a day later just 12 o'clock I have as much as no muscle ache alone, everything has to be rectified

Week 18

Well it was a nice weather, Saturday is cold, Sunday is good, but a lot of wind and it's still cold. I want heat until September!

In spite of that, over 60km in the weekend, now on my way to Saturday the 12th of Steenbergen, I doubted if I would. It was short after Texel and I was not fit. Decided to just start and see where the point of recovery is going to take too long, I stop.

The sponsor's sports nutrition is in and we can try it out. Not at once but a little at a time of course.

Week 17

 
Today my club walked a total of 24 km and last night a mile or 15. Today it fell a bit, I'm physically not fully recovered from Texel, technically technically, but inside it's not all right. It can of course also be a day with some internal problems. Many have to drink and have been hungry all day long.

Nice message from the sports food manufacturer, PowerBar, QWIN, PeptiPlus and For Goodness Shakes. I get a substantial discount on their products! So hopefully for Steenbergen, all the sports drink inside to try.
Well, the approval for the Elfstedenultraloop is a fact, May 19, 2018 230 km! Next challenge

Week 16

Also sent an email or I can join the Elfstedenultraloop, May 19, 2018! I do not yet meet the qualification requirements.

Www.elfstedenultraloop.nl

An official 100km match with a finish within 11.00 hours.
An official 12-hour match with at least 110 km or more.
An official 24-hour game with at least 175 km or more.
All this after May 19, 2016 and unfortunately those of me are earlier.

That is of course another challenge after the Spartathlon.

Sunday again a mile or 17, still feel some fatigue left and right, but that's possible!

Saturday in the woods with a number of club members trained well, 1 hour.

My mate has today Liège Bastogne Liège, 274 km, cycled the bikkel and another size has run in Bouillon a 50 km tram, nowhere near! What a dump we are all.

Thursday with the group trained, they paced me, calmly in the woods. Going well, little bother. Thighs tightened and the left lower back is fixed, loosening yourself!

Tuesday is on schedule, we will try! Goes well 11 km an hour away

Yes Texel, 2 Easter Day 17-04-2017, what am I happily secret!

I have to be honest 3 weeks ago I really doubted 60 or 120 kilometers. Just back in time, beginning of the year no more than 30 km a week and then again in 12 weeks here! Sure, I had a base, but in view of the circumstances.

I definitely decided to be 120. Finish as a goal, between the ears it was good!

Well done has been done and also 5 in general, in a reasonable time. Certainly to circumstances. The only thing I lacked is strength and strength. I'll have to work hard on that.

Very nice was also to work with the research of Arnhem Nijmegen University, shortly Han. See below the power menu, for further information.

Texel 120 km

Texel, what an adventure this time! 120 km. 2 times around the island, four stretches of beach 2 times the same pieces.

the first lap after starting 20 km a light breeze in the lead up to the lighthouse, then relax in the back. First time on the beach, was pretty good at, coming in water so a little hard to strip and run tailwind tasty nonetheless. Thereafter, into the wood and then starts again a piece of beach followed by the Horse, a large desert. He was fair to run, not really loose sand this time, a little more inside pockets.

Then on to the ferry to turn around and walk the other way round it. It is something else, the strip of beach after a Hors km longer.

Also we walk through Old Child and a piece of a mill, instead of just all straight as the first 20 km.

So right back on the Horse, which was just the same, only the play afterward, poe, poe.

Headwind, wind increased to 4 to 5, high water no hard lot more. I knew it, it will last up to the lighthouse, about 25 km.

Back into the forest, a little smaller this time. Than 4 times the beach, whitecaps, no hard piece, bevel, loose sand, wet feet and a head wind that was really abandon. Also there was a happy ending, as I Slufter in a nature reserve. Also simply head wind, the following documents bike path, just as I did to the lighthouse.

Then good wind, and I could feel myself a little regroup again, now counting 25 km yet

at 10 km to go again the gas out exactly put up to 3 km. before the finish. Baf weather the wind right in front and tasty deceptively flat. Only those last kilometers, I just keep going of course. I finish in 11:26 5 overall and 4 men. Super satisfied, beginning of year 30 km. per week and now yet again anticipated.
