Highlander Challenge 2007 |
 |
The swim start at 7AM. The course involved two
loops with one exit from the water. |
 |
Waiting in the swim finish zone for Patrik to
finish the swim before heading for the inline leg. |
 |
Patrik returning from the 3km swim leg (ca. 1:15) |
 |
I return from the Inline leg of 30km (300m change
of altitude) which involved a section with a 17% climb (ca. 0:55) |
 |
Patrik heading for the 120km (1,500m) with two
loops passing through the finish zone (ca. 4:15) |
 |
The "drivers' camp" which also works as changing
zone. A very good idea. |
 |
A Mountainbiker heads for the exit after taking
over from his road cyclist |
 |
Patrik back at the camp having a rest after his
excellent effort |
 |
Me passing through the finish area heading for
the second loop of the MTB leg of 44km (1,000m). As all legs, also the MTB
leg was a beautiful course. |
 |
Coming back into the changing zone after ca.
2:15. The bike leg went well for me and I had a lot of "pressure on the
pedals" |
 |
Heading back out after the direct change from MTB
to running for the 20km double-eight loop around 3 small lakes. The running
went well. Net I could pass 4 competitors of the same category and could
keep my pace but could not accelerate (1:45) |
 |
Coming from the run into the finish area where
Patrik and my brother Urs (as always, he worked hard to support us) joined
me for crossing the finish line |
