Coughing Out Green Mucus

On Tuesday, the first day

The Monday began very early - Somehow could not really sleep ... At 6 clock we went out of bed and start swimming. We were not the only ones - many professionals give here the honor - but much more Agegrouper throw themselves at this early time in just over 25 ° C warm Pacific. You have to get used to it - very high salt content, high temperature and then the waves - even if small. I'm using today's swim for the last unit of length and swimming to just before the Wendeboie and realize that there are already special circumstances here: The water, dried properly in the mouth and the normal abrasions are known by the salt into mature skin irritations. On race day there must necessarily Vaseline it! Overall a good final training.

then here for the breakfast - make up the 3-5 of the plate, we are a bit tired. Then briefly by Kona and then to the car rental. From there we start our tour route. I'm very impressed after just a few kilometers . Not only that it winds properly and the sun burns - including many lengthy hill I had not anticipated. But somehow, the good 1500 meters on the track so come together. In addition, the road is really like a ruler drawn - only 4-5 turns around the track speak volumes. This is physically and mentally challenging - we really aware of me again. We constantly go to athletes by on wheels and tingling in the legs well - but we still need something to regenerate and on Wednesday we will be a go-around.

On the way back we stop at the largest cattle ranch in North America - but is closed on Mondays. However, it was interesting. In Kona I can still buy the lack of competition clothing - now everything is perfect!

now - on Tuesday morning - we sit in the Lava Java - the angsagten Cafe here in Kona. Along with Stadler and Bracht, we enjoy the Kona coffee and watch the dolphins. Wonderful.

Today, we go to the volcano and in the evening Nations - Parade. Let's see how it is.

nice day or night:)
