2 weeks passed, and now we are back home with Retül bike fit education!!!
You can find more information regarding Retül from www.retul.com. Actually it is Frank who is the bikefitter now, so if you are interested of getting a correct riding position on your road og timetrial bike, send me an email. You will get more information from me, regarding the prices etc.
Bact to the training: it was going great til the end. Got experience also from the training possibilities in Denver, the big city next to Boulder 45 min drive from Boulder, while Frank was in the studing. As Frank was in the course, we had decided to stay the nights in Denver. This is also how we got to escape from the forestfire that picked up in the mountains close to Boulder… the smoke gave problems with the air and mountain roads, that got closed. So it was not an idea to train hard as the smoke was in the air!!! But back to Denver: what a big city!
Here you can read some tips of what you can do in Denver, if you are a triathlete:
– ride to the mountains nearby; it takes you an hour and you are in the Rockies; city is full of bikepaths and the views are just incredible beautiful, and the city is full of bikers. Even the Governor of the city is a biker, and has made a law, that cars must pass by the bikers with a minimum of 3 yards!!! Cool!
– run by the rivers, that are in the city, it is just so easy, and again city is full of “joggers”/runners
– swimworkout you do in Denver university pool; it is 50 meters, inside pool,build in 1999 and really something, and easy to reach with a “lighttrain”, that is circulating in town and suburb
– city if full of fitness studios, and SPA for your light “core-session” day or day-off
Have a great journey, if you decide to go west

Craig for the bike, Kaisa for the run :-)
