"The Art of War"

Hi everybody!

I haven’t written before because life and training has been hard! But at the same time it has also been really interesting and beautiful! I don’t have a lot to say I think..... I’ve been working on recovering my speed on the run, and my strength and cadence on the bike. And I can assure you that it’s not easy at all! It’s really hard! My swimming is going much better now! I’m happy about that! It has also been hard, but I can enjoy it every day! I like to go fast, and I like to feel the water on my body!

My next event will be in a bit more than a week in Holten. It’s an European Cup. I want and should have a good result!

What else can I say? Well, I just started to read The Art of War, a book that Brett told us to read. I’ve just read some chapters and I love it! It’s really interesting! Just read this:

So it is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss.
If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.

I will force the enemy to take our strength for weakness, and our weakness for strength, and thus will turn his strength into weakness.

And also I’ve watch some films… and I took some pictures from the place I went to “race”…well training! Here in Switzerland. It was 11km running up hill!! From 0 to 1000m altitude. It was hard! And well, I think that’s all for the moment. I leave you the pictures!
