Week 19

One week to go. Where are we?

• leg injury: recovery in progress
• fitness level: could be better
• carb absorption adaptation: not enough
• weather forecast: I even stopped checking

Because depending on which model you trust, it can still be either 29°C and full sun or 23°C with thunderstorms. At least with the second option the race actually takes place — the first could realistically end with event cancellation.

Injuries, lack of preparation, weather — the number of variables in this year’s race equation became so large that I completely gave up on making predictions. Just enjoying the unknown.
