Cuarenta y dos con Dani

Friday, May 4, 2018

It is hard to describe the feelings that went through our hearts since we heard that Dani had to put on the fighting gloves and go back to the ring so soon (https://miluchacontraewing.wordpress.com/2018/03/13/back-to-the-old-ways/). There is one message that we would like to send you, Dani:

<< Dani, it is always the same story with you... You tell us we are supposed to go on a "one year marathon" and we end up facing an "ironman triathlon" You know that we don’t all have your kind of cross training and endurance!!! And now, we’ll have to learn how to swim and bike...>>

More seriously, we just wanted to say that, whether it is a marathon or an ironman, we will be here, alongside you. The fight goes on.

Enjoy!

They did it!

Sara, Johana, Gaël and Grégoire covered the 21.1 km, distance separating La Tour de Peilz (Vevey) from Ouchy (Lausanne). Running at their own pace, but concentrated and determined, the team members pushed it to the limits, with the following result: despite a significant and continuous front wind, everyone finished in a shorter time than their personal objectives. Special congratulations to Sara and Gaël who had the 2h barrier as a target and who made it in way less.

Tomorrow is the big day!

8 weeks... This is the amount of time our ultra-motivated "Vamos Dani" team just spent training. On a basis of 4 times a week, the best they could. Despite complicated schedules, despite the small pains and injuries, the team has summed up the kilometres, one by one. We set the goal to the symbolic values of 1000 km to be reached since we started running along. Why 1000km? First, because it had to be something huge, something that would be hard to reach, something to they would have to fight for. Second, because roughly speaking it is the distance that separates us from Barcelona and Dani (910km to be precise).

Tomorrow Sara, Johana, Gaël and Greg will be running their first half marathon with the only goal to finish. Each and everyone at his own pace, but to finish. Because all of this is about fighting, holding on and finishing. Almost one year ago now, Dani was starting his own race - probably the hardest of all. Now as he is getting closer everyday to the finish line, we will be there to run along - together.

Good luck everyone and Vamos Dani!
