Doing Up A Double Loop Belt

LA MIA STAGIONE 2008

Dato che ultimamente non sto facendo nulla di “sportivamente interessante”, mi divertirò a rivisitare la mia stagione agonistica che si è “tristemente conclusa” lo scorso 08 novembre a Tarquinia.
Molti know they are not a "huge" frequenter of races.
I run into only a few of the two big events that I choose to start the season.
This year, the two big events were the Passatore in spring and 100 km on the World Cup in Tarquinia in the fall. Half
, marathons, the other ultra running, are just steps in passing that "should" take me in shape for the two that run in the year 100. Gare
not prepare so specifically, but did attempt to "respect" and to make the most of what I get at that time.
But first things first! This year I started a lot later, on March 2 with a new race of 31.1 km, Belluno-Feltre.
Percorso che, a dispetto della planimetria che la indica con un pendenza in costante discesa, ha anche parecchi strappetti, più o meno lunghi, e che la rendono quindi muscolarmente impegnativa.
Il giorno prima di quella gara, ho pensato bene di “agganciare” 30 km collinari sul Montello; ho eseguito quindi un blocco speciale con due 30km in due giorni; l’idea era di fare 30 km il sabato con salite e discese continue e la gara la domenica al ritmo che presumevo di valere in maratona.
Questo in funzione dell’imminente maratona di Treviso in cui volevo scendere sotto le 02h30’.
La gara è andata bene, mi sono divertito, sono arrivato stanco ma contento per aver corso i 31,1 km in 01h49’42” the average of 3'31 .5 "at km, and 11 th place overall, behind champions like Bourifa, Boudalia, Modica, and De Gaspari.
Good race, good feelings, so many people on the path (also very nice) and especially beautiful day spent with friends of Bremen Running Team with whom I made the trip to return.
The following Sunday, March 9, was in anticipation of a race that I like so far: the Trasimeno ultramarathon, a race of 58 km is abundant that the circumnavigation of Lake Trasimeno in Umbria.
I like this race for many reasons: first, because I love the Umbria is a time to visit my relatives in Orvieto where stay for three days, the second is because the location is great, the third is because the race is beautifully organized despite being open to traffic (I even got a mirror in one arm from a jeep that did not even stop), the quarter because there is always going strong.
And this year I did one of my best races, I came 2nd in the 3:38 a.m. '(but with hindsight that race is as if I had won) behind Barbi (that's why I say that race is as if I had won), I ran at a steady pace of 3'45 "at km without suffering too much and still coming out in force at the finish rose to place in Castiglione del Lago
I was really happy and confident for the upcoming marathon of Treviso on March 30.
In the marathon, I was aware that I could get for the first time under 2:30 a.m. '' I wanted to break it down by force because I felt really good.
In addition, for the first time, I was regarded as a top runner and I could enjoy all the privileges of those little things, the "top" can use, first of all, not having to pay more than half an hour standing in the cages waiting for the go.
E 'was a perfect race for me, just how I had imagined: smooth start-up group in order to be able to help, and progression in the final! Before 01h14'47 in half and second half in 01h13'38 "for a final time of 02h28'25", 14th place overall, 7th Italian and staff lowered 2'20 "... .. not bad!
I did a little checking on the internet and saw that the 30 km mark the arrival in that part of 12 km abundant, only Curzon (who won the race), 4 Achmüller Kenyans and ran faster than me!
E 'was wonderful, passing the bridge, shortly after the reunification of three routes: fantastic, creepy! Never seen so many people on the route of a marathon in Italy, people who applauded, cheered and gave you a lot of charge.
Treviso I race twice and I will return in 2009, has everything one could ask of a marathon runner: fast paced, well organized, impressive steps and many people on the course. After
Treviso, the preparation was focused even more for the purpose Passatore.
Two weeks later, on April 13, there was a half marathon in two steps from my house, half "of the Doges.
Prepare a 100 km is a half-way by putting a little 'strange' to train, but on this occasion, I wanted that game with a season long of 60 km on the Sunday before (the next at Treviso), one week workouts very challenging, hilly 22 km the day before, 6 km before the race and another 10 km to the rhythm of "average" after.
The race, however, wanted to push hard for the conditions in which I was, the idea was to make a bell'allenamento pulled then run again in the absence of glycogen and get used to using fat as the main fuel.
Result? I made the staff on a half! 01h12'14 ".
E 'is not a real long time but, for me and my characteristics it is, especially how it was obtained. The placement was small, 17 ° th but did not matter!
I had the staff, had led a good workout: I was so happy! Another step avanti verso la Firenze-Faenza!
Ma il sabato dopo c’era un’altra gara , forse il vero test prima del Passatore: la 6 ore di Ciserano.
Ero molto combattutto se partecipare a quella manifestazione, non ero convinto che fosse una buona idea soprattutto per le caratteristiche del percorso.
A spaventarmi non era tanto il fatto che fosse un anello di 1 km esatto da ripetere tante volte per 6 ore, ma era la strettezza di alcuni passaggi che avevo notato nelle foto delle edizioni precedenti.
Ho chiamato il presidente dei Runners Bergamo (la società organizzatrice) il signor Gregorio Zucchinali (ora nuovo presidente della Iuta), che, molto gentilmente, mi ha confermato quello che avevo visto nelle foto, ma che avrebbe anche fatto il possibile per agevolare la corsa di tutti.
Quando sono arrivato a Ciserano, sabato 19 aprile verso mezzogiorno, e ho visto nella realtà la situazione, non volevo nemmeno partire! I passaggi erano anche più stretti di quello che avevo immaginato (1 metro e poco più in certi punti), 4 curve ad angolo retto per giro, uno scalino, ma soprattutto duecento persone che giravano attorno (c’era anche la 24 ore che era già partita 4 ore prima).
“Impossibile correre!” ho pensato; “Torno a casa!”.
Ma dato che ero là, sono partito comunque! E’ stata una gara che non mi sono gustato fino in fondo.
Ad ogni giro doppiavo decine e decine di runners “camminatori” that certainly does not give the soul to let me pass.
At certain points I had to just stop because there was no room to go anywhere.
In this context I was able to give an account of how people are different: there were those who, for my every step, warned by an "permessoooo" stopped, moved, let me pass without me slowing down and even urged me , and there were those who also sent me to "fuck" just because I pointed out that there was no need to use the mobile phone by sitting quietly in the middle of the already tight racetrack.
Each turn this "rude" (although the term that comes in mind is another start for himself and ends up in the middle or a z) is not shunned and insulted me an inch.
E 'race was a living a little' way ... .. we say "nervous."
lap 8 I also got a little twisted ankle, due to a well under the carpet.
Result? 89km633 meters, almost Italian record (it is exactly 90 km) and the winner!
This measure remains the world season best performance on the distance of 6 hours.
I was more angry than happy! Missing an Italian record of 367 meters after 6 hours is a bit 'a joke! Also because I did all the considerations about how the race was held at the "traffic" on the path, the path itself, in short, happy for the excellent performance but with a little 'bitter taste in the mouth.
The organizers were great but the problems that are created were simply unavoidable.
After a little 'rest and resumed training, May 1st I participated in the first hour of jogging Martellago organized by my group, the Bremen Running Team.
The race took place on a circuit of a km078 meters.
was an opportunity to regain a bit 'of brilliance after long workouts and races.
not because the organizers are all my friends, but they did things to really too great and I really enjoyed running away from me too congenial. I m coming
path 17km630 2 nd behind my friend Alessandro Manente but ahead, and for me the first time, a Moroccan athlete.
not think I can run a 3'24 "medium for an hour after only 10 days after a six hours.
now the days until the smuggler were very few, there was still a long hilly 60-mile marathon and the address of Custoza. Without the long
Sunday, May 4 with good feelings, the next Sunday I lined up at the start of the marathon Custoza, Sommacampagna.
The only goal I had was to run around 2:35 a.m. 'and improve the time it had in the year before 02h39'28 ".
How did it go? Well! In the most unexpected. ... I won! I raced in 02h33'43 "wrong way also (I reached about 300 meters) and also won in the most beautiful, catching and passing the final who preceded me (Bogdanić ...) only 40 km mark.
E 'emotion was never proven, winning a marathon, but not so in a more "qualified" (there were of course African and Italian athletes less than 2:20 a.m.'), it is still a great satisfaction, and Then it was my first win over this distance.
In addition there was to be put into consideration that the condition was really good and that the smuggler could do a really great race. Here
Sommacampagna, I tried the most beautiful emotions of the season, entering the final straight now certain to win was an indescribable moment.
was lucid, I was fine and I enjoyed the 200 meters final in an intense way.
brings us to May 30, the smuggler, about how this race went I wrote one of my first post of this blog.
At this moment I remember the good feeling throughout the race, having always being in control and recovery to those who had gone faster.
I also remember that I was sure to get al podio (stavo troppo bene….), e che speravo in una crisi di Calcaterra per poter raggiungere il massimo risultato.
Crisi che ovviamente non c’è stata (è andato come un treno….) e mi sono dovuto “accontentare” del secondo posto.
Certo che parlare di “accontentarsi” di un secondo posto al Passatore può apparire quasi “blasfemo”; è stato comunque un risultato eccezionale anche perché al via c’erano tutti i più forti italiani (oltre a Calcaterra erano presenti D’Innocenti, Caroni, Rigo, Fattore, Sartori, Trincheri, Malfatti, Di Toma,….) e alcuni russi molto competitivi.
Mi ricordo anche del grande tifo lungo la strada e soprattutto negli ultimi due chilometri; tagliato il traguardo ho avuto una sensazione quasi di “delusione”.
Delusione perché non sono riuscito a gustarmi gli ultimi metri come avrei voluto, troppo attento a gestire i crampi che anche in quella occasione si sono presentati in forma molto acuta, e che non mi hanno consentito di scendere per soli 43” sotto le 7 ore.
Ora, a distanza di 7 mesi, quella delusione ha lasciato spazio alla soddisfazione di aver comunque compiuto una grande gara.
L’estate è passata via senza gare in preparazione di quello che doveva essere l’appuntamento clou del 2008: il mondiale di Tarquinia sui 100 km.
Il 5-6-7 settembre era fissato un raduno della nazionale di ultramaratona in Luco dei Marsi (AQ) at the Italian league on 6 hours.
was a very exciting event: dealing with all other team-mates in a tough race as a 6 hours.
The route was 1337 meters, with two rounds of the buoy, a little rise, a discesetta, and two falsipiani (one uphill and one downhill).
Even before leaving I knew it would be tough to finish: there were 36 degrees with 70% humidity.
In fact, after just over four hours and made almost 61 km (average of 3'59 "at km), when I was in command ahead of the second 2.5 km (Andrea Rigo ....) I decided to stop.
I was very sorry to retire but to run for another two hours with that climate, it meant risking to be really evil and prevent the rest of the preparation for the championship. Forgot your
no positive experience of 6 hours of Luco, I wanted to make my marathon del Garda.
I was in the midst of preparation for the World Cup, I felt that the condition was growing well and so I tried to set a race at a pace a bit 'faster than planned. Even
of this marathon, I wrote a post (in the month of September ...) that describes the most important moments.
I finished in third place in 02h30'35 ", my second best performance in the marathon, the first Italian.
certainly did not expect a fastest time so positivo e ancor di più un piazzamento così importante in una maratona con 1500 iscritti.
La gara è semplicemente stupenda; un percorso eccezionale, duro ma con un paesaggio incredibile, con parecchia gente ad applaudire.
Una bellissima esperienza che nella prossima stagione mi piacerebbe ripetere.
E siamo alla maratona di casa: la Venice Marathon.
Beh! Di questa maratona (che ho corso 6 volte) conosco ogni strada dato che ci vivo a Venezia (terraferma….).
Quest’anno l’ho affrontata con un piglio diverso; doveva essere l’ultima gara prima dei mondiali e non potevo tirarmi troppo il collo.
Sono però sopraggiunti degli “imprevisti”, alcuni piacevoli (l’inserimento between the top runner) and others not (the calf injury).
The injury has made me "jump" the last of 60 km long on the Sunday before.
Psychologically, this bothered me and so I decided to do another 18 km at the end of the marathon long run that cut the previous week.
The inclusion among the top runner the other hand, leads me to push more than what I had or wanted.
And so at last came out a time of 02h34'08 ", 30 th overall which was followed two hours later, another 18 kilometers to the training of 4'00" at km.
During the 42 km from Stra to Venice I really enjoyed it; This year was really a lot of people along the way, the day was beautiful and, not too much to hook it allowed me to enjoy the shift in the ways of my province.
The arrival in Venice is really beautiful then, get off the last bridge with the last ten meters of momentum to do, is truly unique.
And here ends my season!
And the world? Well! In that race I have already said and written too much, we all know how it went, needless to return to it. The
I just want to forget, or better, I just want to learn from the mistakes made by not having to regret something that I could achieve and that I missed.
Above, I quote a slide show with pictures of my races in 2008 ...... a whole, for good or ill of emotions difficult to forget.
The song that accompanies the picture of U2 and says, "but I Still Have not Found What I Looking For" which translated means "But I have not found what I'm looking for."
We hope to see him in 2009, perhaps in Belgium in June ...... happy holidays to all!

One Night In Paris Streaming Hilton

NATALE

I write this post after a week since my last intervention on this blog.
It was a very busy week ..... works speak.
workouts are progressing well, according to the program, and the physical condition is, slowly, returning to levels at least "good enough"!
Sure! I still go very slowly, I struggle and I still have 4 pounds heavier than my ideal weight but at this point the preparation is good even then.
change the subject, I wanted to make a wish everyone!
hope it's not meant to be a simple "well past the holidays and have fun!" but rather: "Try to understand the true meaning of Christmas."
Christmas should not just be a large eat and spend and spread but also something very deep and spiritual.
I hope you will be able to find the time, but especially the desire to understand that these are busy days not only to shop, prepare or arrange for travel and holiday dinners, but also to approach the "vero Natale" nel miglior modo possibile.
Ognuno poi ha la sua "concezione" del Natale, l'importante è che non sia solo "materiale".
Questo è l'augurio che faccio a chi legge il mio blog e che faccio anche a me stesso e ai miei cari.
Buon Natale!

Cipro Glucosamine Sulfate

40' DI TAPIS ROULANT....ALTRO CHE 100 KM!

Oggi ho ceduto pure io!
Dopo 5 giorni di secchiate d'acqua mi sono stufato di uscire all'aperto e correre sotto veri diluvi: pioggia forte, vento, pozzanghere che hanno dimensioni di laghetti di montagna, macchine che "senza volerlo" (diciamo così.....) mi facevano veri e propri gavettoni e allenamenti terminati con le rane nelle scarpe.
Oggi, di tutto questo ne avevo abbastanza anche perchè, alla fine, allenarsi under these conditions was rather counterproductive to make repeated changes or against the walls of the wind, the puddles dribbling and being careful not to be affected was not quite the case.
then I twisted my preparation now anticipating the weekly weight training session scheduled for tomorrow morning and entered a drainage work on the treadmill 40 '.
premise: I had never run 40 'continues on the carpet. Before
weight, normally, we run over about 10'-15 'to the beat bland but I had never ventured beyond.
And so, after the strengthening exercises, I wanted to challenge themselves there.
The only goal was to run around 150 beats per minute, the speed would have been a consequence.
I knew it would be tough, not just physically but also mentally, and so, to get over myself I fitted the I-pod, which I never ever ever.
After 5 minutes I was already ato rocks .... and I thought: "Run, run, and are always on the same square meter."
I tried to distract the people from the gym, programs on television, outside the windows (and a lot of water coming down) but nothing! ..... I am not passed!
And so I started to just focus on music and daydreaming; fantasized about a 100 km that I should still run (I chose the London Olympics of 2012 ... maybe the 100 km truly become an Olympic sport), to those who were my opponents in that race, the trail by the public in the stadium waiting for the arrival, they were going to kilometers in Bragagna who did the commentary, to my friends who watched that race on TV I was dreaming ...... All "crap" like that.
But among so many stupid things that crossed my head and the help of Bon Jovi, Linkin Park, U2, Negramaro, I got the 35 '. Me
it lacked only the 5 'and thus, increasing the speed of the treadmill, I imagined the last kilometers of the race I was imagining, in Bragagna commented that, the excitement of those who attended the key steps at the entrance to the stadium and, when there were a few seconds at the finish line I was going to pass and then I passed. Guess
how I placed in that race?
Well! If you do not win at least let me do it for real in the imagination, so I do go 40 'on the treadmill.
But tomorrow, rain or no rain, back to run out.
Promised!

PS The lake I did too, but with sweat .... Mom how much I sweat!

How Long Does Don Quai Take To Work

COME PROCEDE......

How do the training?
I would say pretty well, especially because they are moderately satisfied, though light years away from an acceptable condition, I can run without feeling bad anywhere, which is extremely positive!
The three weeks of almost complete absence from the race, they have achieved their goal: to dispose of me injuries that I had completely pulled during the preparation for last world.
Now that I am pretty well, I'm trying to do everything you need to do to avoid accidents or own: a lot of fitness, such as stretching and joint mobility.
to comfort me then, is the fact that, last year at this point of preparation (at the end of 2nd week) I was much slower in doing much more effort.
I also changed something with the strengthening in the gym and this may, initially, slow down further, but later on, give me some advantages in terms of strength and power especially in the shorter distances and uphill. I want to
correre (nonostante le caterbe d'acqua che mi sto prendendo....) e di faticare; spero che questa voglia rimanga sempre intatta in attesa della prossima stagione agonistica e di una condizione ottimale.

Jenna Haze Aurora Snow Got Dick? T-shirt

HO RIPRESO......MA CHE FATICA!

E' passata una settimana dalla ripresa dei miei allenamenti per la prossima stagione.
Devo essere sincero: sto facendo una fatica "incredibile"!
All'entusiasmo e alla voglia di riprendere a correre e di provare quelle belle sensazioni che un bell'allenamento ti lascia per qualche ora, si aggiunge però uno stato di "prostrazione" per l'immensa fatica che si percepisce nonostante i ritmi siano decisamente blandi e i km decisamente pochi, rispetto ai carichi che ero abituato a fare quando la forma era al top!
I am comforted by the fact that, by controlling the time and training of last season, the results were the same (if not worse ....).
By choice, when I decide to "remove" the race, ex-really!
Three weeks where I be regenerated from a physical point of view but also nervous.
In 20 days I ran only 4 times for no more than 35'-40 'and after the World Cup in Tarquinia, I was completely stopped for 10 days.
so doing it will eventually completely lose the condition.
Fortunately, heart and muscles have memory and then resumes.
course, used to run the funds to slow to 155 bpm 3'50, be doing the same workouts (shorter) with 20 " in più al km e 10 pulsazioni in più al minuto è davvero sconfortante.
Già dopo una settimana qualcosina sta migliorando, ma una condizione sufficiente è davvero distante da ottenere.
Gli anni scorsi ho visto che, per correre su ritmi discreti facendo una fatica contenuta, ci ho messo un mese abbondante.
L'importante è tenere duro e, soprattutto, continuare a lavorare con metodo, così come mi sono imposto per questa nuova avventura che dovrà culminare il prossimo giugno in Belgio.

Female Panties Diagram

CRAMPI, CPK E DOTTORI

Dopo la cocente delusione dei mondiali di Tarquinia ho cercato di andare a fondo riguardo al problema che mi è occorso: i crampi.
Anche in passato ne avevo sofferto come ad esempio in Korea, in 2006 when, during the World Cup, to the 80th km traveled in 8th place with a final projection of about 6:50 a.m.-06h45' ', I was literally "stuck" at that time I managed to finish the race in 18th position, 7:12 a.m. 'and doing the last 10 km in 58'43 ".
Or the smuggler of this year when, because of cramps, I could not fall below the 07 hours for a breath .. .. I moved to Brisbane with a time without much push in the final, would allow me to end at 6:55 a.m. '.
Given the history I have therefore moved consulting with doctors and nutritionists to understand how I could solve the problem.
I made some tests blood after 10 days of rest and many values \u200b\u200bwere still somewhat "disrupted", CPK and ferritin among all.
More or less what they told me all was this: you're too worn out, do you train too much, you have to rest more!
But how do you prepare a 100 km on the world and hope to run it as protagonists, without much training?
How do I get rested, with all values \u200b\u200bin place, after a period of preparation for a race so long and demanding?
Maybe this year my preparation was influenced by two muscle injuries that made me change the programs running, and I was not allowed to download the week sufficiently close to the world (the last very long I have only 13 days before the course: the Venice marathon plus another 18 km).
But the fact remains that every time I do a blood test I have this blessed CPK also 6-7 times higher than normal.
Who I consulted told me that the cramps, probably formed not for a lack electroplating, but because I showed up at the start "too trained" or "tired" (even if it did not seem right to me ... at least I I felt good!).
What is CPK? In other words it is a muscle enzyme that "helps" when rebuilding muscle fibers are damaged, in practice, when higher than normal, indicating that there is an ongoing muscle damage.
The month before the World Cup (5-6 days calf prior to the accident) I had this value to 570 against a maximum of 170 (one time, in February, I had also in 2800 .... the day before I had a long of 40 km).
That is normal when one runs an average of 25-30 km per day, but so what?
How do I get the normal CPK and then have a good working muscles, practicing every day? Most
prepared in training methodology will say to me: "You must enter the exhaust of the sessions."
Which of course I have done the tests were done after 4 days of slow running or strengthening that followed the marathon del Garda.
Today I went to a neurologist who, indeed, to understand more, he asked to do the exams del sangue anche a tutta la mia famiglia e successivamente un'elettromiografia e, se non basta, anche una biopsia muscolare.
Pensa addirittura che ci possa essere una qualche malattia muscolare. Bah! Mi sento di escluderlo (tocco ferro!)
Starò ancora più attento allo scarico, mi allenerò un po' meno e farò ancora più attenzione all'alimentazione.
Speriamo basti per portare giù questo CPK e non soffrire più in futuro di crampi.

Get Invitation From Velicity Von

MARTELLAGO-PADOVA 2008


Era da un po' che non scrivevo qualcosa!
Aspettavo l'occasione giusta per farlo.
Ho atteso fino ad oggi perchè stamattina si è "consumato" l'evento "clou" Brema Running Team of the season, my group podisitico.
For the third consecutive year we ran the relay Martellago-Padova.
E 'an event that we strongly felt as it leads the participants from the headquarters of our company, shop technician Beppe our president, to Children's Hospital of Padua.
are proposed four portions of approximately 8-10 km.
Everyone is free to participate in all the villages he wants, the only rule is: RUN GROUP.
The last part (the 5th) is a kind of "bridge" where all participants come together at the entrance of the hospital Padua.
We were about fifty this morning at 7:40 ready to go.
Our Vice President Mauro (who knows us all by the thread and sign) has divided the groups according to the rhythm of each stroke so as to facilitate their "rush to the group."
came down in a dry state, but shortly before departure, as the rain has slowed down in intensity to almost vanish altogether.
few minutes before departure came even our mayor John Brunello to say hello and to give away in this race for the solidarity.
The former are parties to 08.00, while with others that I would run the last two fractions, we got on the bus would have anticipated that the first runners to give them the best exchange rate forward on the path.
The first fraction was about 12 km from Martock and brought up to Zianigo; the first group stopped in a few and almost all have continued to Pianiga (after 8km).
meantime had begun to rain, making this a very strong relay far more involved than in years past. A
Pianiga I left myself in quite a flood, and despite the water we had a great time, there was a festive atmosphere of friendship that made us literally fly the third and fourth fraction (for a total of approximately 15 km) to the gates of Padua.
They talked, we laughed, we joked, we laughed at good-naturedly. There are also those who
deliberately jumped in the puddles, making splash cold water on him and dirty, in the end we were wet as chicks.
Tarquinia was the world who does not run 15 km in that situation but I felt like I could run forever as there was enjoying himself.
will be the fact that, for once, it ran only for myself, to do a workout or a race, but ran to stay together and to bring a message to those children who went to see a message that he wanted then this: "We remember you and your parents are not alone in your battle."
This seemed to be the spirit that motivated each of us.
Latest 4 km sono stati proprio di festa; tutto il gruppo del Brema si è ricongiunto e uniti siamo arrivati all'ospedale pediatrico di Padova dove ad attenderci c'erano alcuni genitori dei bambini ricoverati e i volontari del Volo, l'associazione onlus che si occupa di raccogliere fondi per aiutarli.
E ci hanno accolto decisamente alla grande, con un rinfresco degno da matrimonio che ha fatto saziare anche le bocche più voraci (compresa la mia....).
Dopo esserci rifocillati, siamo entrati in aula magna per la conferenza stampa dove, il presidente del Volo ha spiegato come l'associazione svolge la propria attività in aiuto soprattutto allo staff medico che opera all'interno dell'ospedale.
Il dottor Zulian, scientific director of Flight, said then, to what extent are the research projects carried out by them and what will be their next order interventi.Alla word even took our presidents (and vice Beppe owner Mauro) stressed that the spirit that gives life to our group: solidarity, friendship and love for travel.
This year we got into the department, perhaps it was better to not "upset" the balance to which those children, their parents and doctors are accustomed to.
For us it was still important to let them know that today we went there for them.
The return bus from Padua to Martellago was like going from a school trip, where we were contenti di aver passato una bella giornata tra amici e aver portato un segnale di solidarietà a quei bambini.
Sopra ho messo una slide show con alcune foto della giornata; ho corso con la macchinetta in mano, spero siano venute bene.

P.S. Cosa meno importante, domani riprendo ad allenarmi seriamente, obiettivo: Belgio 2009 (mondiali 100 km)!

Rubber Mats For Rabbit Cages

SERATA BREMA RUNNING TEAM


Ieri sera, alla risto-taverna del Centro Fitness dove lavoro, il Brema Running Team ha organizzato una pizzata per tutti gli iscritti al gruppo ed i simpatizzanti.
La serata è stata "proposta" soprattutto beneficial to present the baton "Martellago-Padova" on Sunday 30 November, which will bring all participants from the headquarters of our company, shop technician President Beppe up at the pediatric hospital of Padua.
E 'was a very nice evening, very pleasant and, above all, very participatory, we were so many, we filled almost "almost" the entire restaurant (which holds 130 seats).
was the first time since February that we were all together and was also an opportunity to meet new students.
Also present was our mayor who wanted to testify to the goodness of the initiatives of our group is not active only "race", but also of solidarity and of those less fortunate.
Next Sunday we will go after the race covered almost 40 kms from Martock from Padua, with runners consisting of four groups, to find the children guests of childhood rheumatic disease ward of the hospital Padua, we will try to bring them some time to "leisure" and a beautiful memory of that day.
What makes this possible is the non-profit association "The Flight", which devotes all its human and material resources for the study, research and treatment of those diseases that affect children who go to visit.
All of us in Bremen we run with the logo of "Flight" on the shirts and we are delighted.
I was very pleased to see representatives of the Venice Marathon Running Team jogging, I am convinced that cooperation between various groups, both important and positive to grow more and more a movement such as jogging in Venice.
A special mention has been made and due to our teammate Barbara Dupre, who was thought to be the "summer vacation" in Cape Verde but not like normal tourists golden beaches and clear blue sea, but in a of the poorest areas of the country to help children and poor people living in poverty and do somersaults of joy for a notebook and a pen.
A little 'a' surprise ', I have delivered a beautiful targa in ricordo di questa stagione per me molto intensa che, mondiali a parte, è stata ricca di soddisfazioni.
Cosa dire? Per me l'affetto che ieri sera mi è stato manifestato da tutti i miei compagni di club, dai miei compagni di consiglio direttivo (ne faccio parte anch'io da pochissime settimane), è stata un'ulteriore molla che mi spinge ad impegnarmi ancor di più per la prossima stagione.
Il nostro è un bellissimo gruppo che ogni anno cresce sempre di più, fatto di persone che corrono per divertirsi, per stare bene, per migliorarsi ma, soprattutto, per stare insieme.
I "L'anno prossimo i mondiali andranno meglio, vedrai...", "Sei stato bravo lo stesso....", "Non give ....", but circumstances were not phrases spoken with conviction and respect.
And I hope not to disappoint no one!
Meanwhile I can not wait to go next Sunday to be another beautiful day in friends and bring a smile to those children.

PS I took corricchiare floor plan, two uscitine 40 '! The next will ride a seventh day and the other not, then, from 01 December, again!

Male Waxer San Antonio

+ 5 KG

Plus 5 kg?
What does it mean?
Simple! The weight that I put in about 8 days of complete absence of movement.
Well yes From that inauspicious 08 novembre non ho più fatto alcuna attività fisica.
Riposo assoluto e mangiate incredibili; onestamente mi sentivo pesantino e poco tonico e così sono salito sulla bilancia di casa che, dai 71 kg pre Tarquinia, mi ha segnato 76,5 kg.
All'inizio ho pensato ad un errore di taratura e così ho riprovato anche in palestra dove abbiamo una bilancia professionale, risultato? 76,5 kg.
Mi sono veramente "spaventato".
Per fortuna addosso non mi si vedono (così mi dicono.....) ma, me li sento tutti!
Del resto quando si cena con un piattone di spaghetti alla carbonara, una pizza con sfilacci di cavallo e altre cose sopra, ed un dolce fatto con nutella e mascarpone (tutto nella stessa sera) è anche chiletto normal that some will put up.
Perhaps, indeed it is surely a mistake to pick up so the weight, but I forced myself to stay completely still for 10 days (until Wednesday) and then resume light workouts with light (and day) for 10 days, then resume fully operational on December 1.
The choice of doing nothing for 10 days was made for three reasons:
- to fully recharge the batteries psycho-physical.
- To do a blood test in a situation of absolute rest, which I've never done, blood tests I have done different, but always in situations of physical stress, and I will see if those parameters which are usually deficient ( ferritin, creatine kinase, cortisol), back in place without training.
- Why the calf gives me a little 'annoyance, the contraction, after the effort of the world has returned to be felt, if not I take this opportunity now to resolve it does not solve the most.
I am convinced that detach for a while 'days once a year is healthy, or better, which is essential to deal in good condition, a new preparation for some important task.
would be better to do active recovery, but for another 10 days before I plunge back into the new training program for the next world.
Program which is now ready and needs only a preliminary analysis "in cold blood" to any review or editing it, according to quelle che sono state le mie esperienze di questi ultimi anni, non ultima come importanza Tarquinia 2008.
Sto anche scegliendo le gare a cui parteciperò nel 2009; c'è l'imbarazzo della scelta! Ancora una volta opterò per quelle più vicine a casa (i trasferimenti fanno perdere tempo che non dedichi al riposo o ad altre cose), a quelle meglio organizzate tra quelle a cui ho partecipato e alla loro collocazione in calendario, in base anche allo sviluppo dei miei programmi di allenamento.
E ora vado a mangiare qualcosina che è quasi ora di merenda.........ops! Meglio che mi tenga va!

Laptop Sim Card Linux

GRAZIE E......SI RIPARTE!

Sono passati ormai tre giorni dal mondiale di sabato scorso e devo ammettere che l'amarezza è ancora tanta.
to remember what day it is still a very strong pain in my legs that I feel every time I do the stairs ..... and luckily I stopped at the 75 km mark!
cramps are like that, now I know them, they leave you trailing for several days.
not spend more than 10 'that I think of that race, as I was, to my feelings, its evolution, how it went and as it could go.
I do not even want to see the few pictures that my father was able to shoot with his camera.
I find it hard even to read the comments in sites for runners who tell the evolution of the race.
I'm bad! And I'm ashamed because all in all it comes to sports, entertainment, I should be stronger and think that the race is not everything in life, there's more: health, relationships, family ......
But I have done so! When I do something I try to do it well, I throw myself there and I always want to be able to get the best out of what I do and if I can not, I live like a stinging personal defeat.
also say that I am ashamed, two tears fell while I was on the phone to tell my father in my race, what had happened and that he had not seen, to my feelings, that sense of helplessness created by cramps and run away seeing a great result that I was now reaching.
that I always think that we have too many a few tears to shed in our life, I've wasted a race.
But one thing was too big a world, the jersey of their team on his shoulders, running into the house, the feeling of being worth a medal, and my expectations of many people that I respect, there was so much, very much as a simple foot race.
I left with two gold medals with the team in blue and I'm delighted but I can not hear me, I'm not even reached the bottom, I have not contributed in any way to such success.
But I have left something else in addition to those medals, a great joy for the 24 comments I've read the last post I wrote. Comments
of esteem, gratitude and invite you to never give up.
Most people who write do not know them personally, and I must admit that these people have given me an incredible charge to try again.
I did not want to respond directly to all of you because you wrote a thank you would be trivial, I decided to make a new post to express my gratitude to people who have no idea how well I have done with two lines in this blog.
..... Thank you so much everyone! The
December 1 will take up to train seriously, in the meantime, rest, read alternative sports and corsets.
now remains to plan the preparation for the next world (if I understand why ....) and convene the formation of these I suffer from cramps in forever. I will try to help some
hematologist since I have several blood values \u200b\u200bthat are not quite in accordance, in particular ferritin and CPK, a muscle enzyme that also reaches values \u200b\u200b15 times higher than normal when I train.
also consult with a neurologist, I have come to solve this problem, you can not sweat a year, and when you are there to reap the fruits of your work, seeing him run away from the hands to the same problem.
's time to get to the bottom of the matter and I will!
How I assure you that on 19 June, in Belgium, I will present aggueritissimo; will no longer be the World Cup but Italians are increasingly global, and the title and the medals are always those with the advantage that race and the journey already know him because I have his international debut in 2006.
I have an open wound to be closed, it still hurts and I want to burn a long time, to remind me that in Belgium will be a different story.

Motor Vehicle Sale Agrement

E' ANDATA MALE!

Well! Many already know this, my world adventure ended bitterly to the 75th km.
What happened? I do not know! Or rather, I know, cramps, but I do not know what it is because I have already submitted by the 50th km.
Now I have a big head in confusion and bitterness, a year of preparation, hard work, training and sacrifices have failed to achieve my dream of an individual world medal.
In my heart I knew I was worth it, it is true that there were many opponents (and teammates) very strong, but I also knew that my condition was good and I could play my cards.
At the start I was convinced, and I started to fire immediately in the top group! We were many, a fortnight, all the best were there apart from Marco D'Innocenti who preferred a more cautious start. There were also athletes
unknown I did not expect to see there and they have created, together with the Japanese to continue the tear.
I tried to run smooth, occasionally, with the Russians, the English and Polish, which came second, and then we come off when requeueing before slowing.
The route from Tuscania, Tarquinia was hard, constant ups and downs but never dull, and then he passed away well. At the 25th km
a Japanese attacked and went behind a Slovak, a Ukrainian and an Australian (all 4 unknown), then moved even Giorgio Calcaterra which was answered by the other Japanese and English who has made three °.
And so we got to get into the circuit to be repeated 4 times (at km 37) in two small groups with 30 seconds apart.
there and start the real race, I knew that before (except for Calcaterra) could not keep that pace and long, running at just under 4 'to miles, I managed to recover slowly, a bit' of athletes who had initially gone too far.
I was fine with me were the strongest two Russians (including Kharitonov, 3rd in the world last year and European Champion) and a Spaniard, I knew all three and stay with them because they gave me security Athletes of value (all three medals already in previous editions of the various leagues) was not very strong and did not understand why if you take it so comfortable, I realized shortly after the transition to the marathon (2h45'40 ") .. ... they did not have to go any faster!
I was only 45 km mark, I passed the 50 km mark in 3h17'37 "(6:35 a.m. final projection ') and I was in 10th place.
I was still full of energy but already felt the first cramp calves.
the 54th km, where there was a restaurant, tell me I'm the 9th (I had passed a Canadian "dead") but Mauro notice of this annoying problem.
ran more in 4 'to km despite a strong headwind and an asphalt very "impractical" for a World Cup.
At 55 km mark I took a Swedish first and then the three Japanese who were much fruit.
At that point I knew that I was fifth and the fourth was very close.
at the 60 km mark, where there was a third station refreshment at the end of a downhill, I got stuck in the middle of the road for a violent attack of cramp in the hamstrings, I could not move! They helped me and Cristian Nicola Tiso (the cousin of Monica Carlin), I drank, Nicola massaged me and I left.
I had terrible leg cramps and constant hints of, but not the energy there I could use to push as hard as I wanted. At 62 °
I relocking, I began to fear not being able to go.
I have taken over and helped me in the way downhill and the wind.
ran over 4'10 "at km and are passed to the rest of the 69 km mark, where there was still Finnish.
At that point I was fourth with English forward about 1'30" -2 '.
km from 69 ° to 74 ° km I stopped in the road at least 6-7 times, and there was more to run, as I moved, I blocked for cramps in the hamstrings and the polpacci.
Il problema era che, come mi rilassavano un po' e potevo ripartire, percepivo i muscoli delle gambe completamente induriti e intossicati da queste violente contrazioni.
Nel frattempo (quando ero fermo) mi avevano superato un americano ed un russo.
Al ristoro del 74° km decido di fermarmi, poi però ho visto passare il trenino azzurro composto da D'Innocenti, Rigo e Caroni e quindi, incitato anche da loro, ho provato a ripartire stando con loro.
Purtroppo, dopo circa 500 metri, mi sono ribloccato per un'altra forte fitta di crampi alle coscie.
Lì è finito il mio mondiale.
Trascinarsi, camminando per 25 km non era il caso! Il campionato a squadre era in buone mani con i miei compagni che were having a great race.
A cool head what can I say?
First of all to congratulate my teammates who have run very well; Calcaterra was impressive for the calm with which he ran, always in my head from first to last meter.
The other three (Mark, Andrew and Francis) as well as they showed in the race walk team play is critical and can lead to big results. Bravissimo
anhée factor that Mario had gone to do 40 km and eventually finished the race. Beautiful
the girls in the head with Monica Carlin, who has run very well, and dosing in comeback effort: a European silver and bronze individual world is a tremendous accomplishment. Sorry
for all my teammates who, like me, have failed for various problems, to finish the race.
Now I'm trying to understand why these cramps, I suffer from it but, usually, the thick block me, I feel only the 80 km mark, while yesterday but have already submitted by the 50th km.
Maybe it was hot (20 °), perhaps the wind, perhaps the demanding course, perhaps the nervous tension that you think you do not feel but which manifests itself in various ways, perhaps a program that has suffered the last injury that forced me to get me some 'neck until shortly before the race.
Of course I did not come because I have overdone it with the rhythms or why not integrate well in supplies (Salts immediately and in any restaurant).
There 's been like that and you can not do anything!
Now we must find the will to leave everything behind and return to work next year.
Honestly I have absolutely no desire to think about it I do not want to think about race and race, I want to disconnect from everything and recharge mentally from this particular beating.
One thing I must point out: all calls, messages, emails and comments on this blog, I came to "encourage" even though things have gone wrong.
are important expressions of affection that make me understand how, after all, what I do and what they are, it is appreciated by many people; l'autenticità degli apprezzamenti la vedi veramente solo quando le cose vanno male e, di gente, che in queste ore mi è stata vicina, ce ne stata veramente tanta.
Un grazie ai dirigenti/accompagnatori della squadra nazionale, ai miei grandi compagni e compagne di squadra, a tutto il Brema Running Team (grazie Mauro, Mirco, Carlo e Roberta) e a quelle che persone che ho visto realmente dispiaciute per il mio ritiro.
Se riprenderò ad allenarmi e a faticare non lo farò solo per me.

Make Your Own Entrance

ORMAI MANCA POCO

Ci siamo, il count down segna meno 2 giorni.
Emozioni? Tante e per fortuna positive!
Le sensazioni fisiche sono ottime, l'infortunio al polpaccio è quasi del tutto sparito e quando corro la mia mind does not think more.
In these days of uninterrupted rain, moisture from rain forest and a warm mid-spring (today the thermometer was 23 ° at noon when I raced, with 75% humidity) my training took place very well and this gives me great confidence for Saturday.
are days that I think about how I will run the world, if you follow my instinct is to run faster with a little 'margin and in recovery or trying to run "man".
Everything will depend on the rhythm that the other participants will want to hold at first. If
start at 3'30 "-3 '40" certainly let them go otherwise I'll try to risk something .... maybe!
Si perchè ci vuole sempre un grande rispetto per una distanza così lunga e, il primo avversario da battere è soprattutto la tua fatica.
Probabilmente deciderò un attimo dopo lo sparo che ritmi tenere, in base alle mie sensazioni del momento, al percorso che, nella prima parte, si presenta abbastanza impegnativo, alle condizioni climatiche (pioggia, vento, umidità, caldo, freddo,....), e anche alla situazione tattica che si verrà a creare.
In mente so bene a che ritmi posso correre per tantissimi km in una situazione ambientale "neutra" ma tutto diventerà "relativo" alla situazione che troveremo sabato mattina.
Baldini ad Atene nel 2004 disse:"O vinco o muoio!".
Io dico più semplicemente:"Arriverò Tarquinia, having given everything I have in my body ..... hoping not to have too much in front. "
Yeah Because of very strong opponents, there are many and many a personal best of my.
At this point I wanted to do some thoughts that I have done in these days that are not closely related to the speech "world".
First, I originally started this blog mainly for myself, because I liked the idea of \u200b\u200bre-reading my emotions and my thoughts on to some argument, a few months, and in fact, every time I go back and reread some posts, such as the smugglers or the World Cup last year.
Then I realized that, to read there are also many other people I have shown affection, respect and friendship that I have always encouraged and urged to continue on this road, some written comments of appreciation, more and more I write email I send text messages, here ..... Saturday is for them to try to give everything I have in my body!
Some people do not respect me that much, but it is not a problem! I accept criticism and controversy, just be done with civility and education and the foundations that have "real" source.
The second (and this has nothing to do with anything the world) know Rafa Nadal? It 's the number one tennis player in the world, you know what he did? Declined to participate in the ATP Masters (tournament that brings together the best 8 giocatori al mondo in due gironi all'italiana, con semifinali incrociate e finale e che decreta il campione del mondo per la stagione in corso) e che gli avrebbe garantito un bonus di 1,5 milioni di dollari solo partecipando (senza contare poi gli eventuali premi) per essere al 100% per la finale di Coppa Davis con la Spagna in Argentina la settimana dopo.
Capite? Ha rinunciato a 1,5 milioni di dollari sicuri per giocare al top per il suo paese, per la sua nazione, la finale della Coppa Davis.
Qualcuno dirà:"Beh! Tanto di soldi lui ne ha già tanti!", è vero! Ma sono sempre 1,5 milioni di dollari ed il titolo di campione del mondo contro il voler rappresentare a tutti i costi il suo paese in una finale di Davis "terribile" (The environment) in Argentina. Nadal
Great!
I am a bit 'out of context "race" because this thing I was very impressed .... welcome!
Well! Now I'm going to make me the last Tecar calf and prepare for the bag.
I hope to tell the world on a large 100 km and I promise that I will give 'ALL!

BREMA RUNNING TEAM E VENICE MARATHON

bremen running team
I "stole" the homepage of my foot and the group I "appicicata" in this post.
Step inside, there's the ranking of the group at Venice Marathon with a chance to see some pictures of our race.
clicking on the video camera next to my name is also visible delle riprese che mi riguardano durante la maratona.
