If you have an old father that is not getting older in a proper way may be you have the answer or the same problem.
Well, at least this time he was the first one. Eheem!!! The first guy who crossed the finish line dressed in his clerk attire.
What and embarrassment, but soon is going to be my birthday.

I have said sometimes that humans do not run and my Father will rate as a turtle considering that he runs very slow even for being a human. Despite that he runs and runs every week with her new running friends. Past December the 7th they run in Mataro where he embarrassed me with his poor performance.
But he –and all the people who finished – got a very nice present from a health and beauty company.
At least he and Draculina helped our family to cope with the economic crisis. We have some pictures of the team, but they’re some damn hot and attractive that we are afraid of crazy girls asking for their phone numbers and me being homeless after the divorce.

Pero por primera vez él y
TODOS los que terminaron recibieron un regalo magnífico del patrocinador.Por lo menos él y Draculina ayudaron a nuestra familia a intentar superar la crisis. Tenemos varias fotos del equipo, pero con hombres tan atractivos y musculados es posible que se monte un buen sarao y yo acabe en la calle tras el divorcio. (que sé que a más de uno las turistas acalaman con delirio en el Parc Güel)
Wanna know who is my father? just remember who was in New Zealandin summer time while others enjoied the summer in the northern hemisphere.
UPDATED: My rotten spoiled child sabotaged my time. She added 10 minutes more!!! It was less than 1:30
You know that my daughter defied me saying that humans do not run and furthermore I was old and slow. Since then I have been training hard to make her swallow her words.
And Today Draculina, Ramiro and me stopped the watch at 1:29:04 in a Half Marathon.
I must admit that now I have the expert advice of other human racers who really are aware of my problem. (Mr. Bunny)
Going on foot from home to the start is very convenience and you know that if you decide to quit a taxi will take you back home.
But if you want to feel the glory of being a real finisher my city’s Marathon is the choice.
Have you imagined going up on Nathan road to Lantau and crossing the Tsing Ma Bridge to end in Causeway Bay.
Are you afraid?
On my agenda: Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon or/and Mizuno Barcelona Marathon.
Today I run another race – Barceloneta- to end a very hard week..
PS: This time Mem accompanied me.
Together with the item’s prize they put additional information like weight. There covered by a glass that protected them from undesirable people like us – unable to buy one pair with several years’ savings- were: The Adidas New York.
285 grams of Anthracite coloured beauty made in Western Germany.
The first model was released in 1982 or something around there and of course I never have owned one pair. May be fifteen or twenty years after that they made a re-edition.
I failed to get the real colour a few years ago. I loved them, I love them but I was not going to pay 200 dollars for a crappy pair. I missed the opportunity because I didn’t found my size.
Now, I founded on ebay for just 25 euro. A pity that the colour scheme is not the original one and that the overall feeling is that this pair has nothing related to the old New York.
Today FB took part into “Merce 2008 10 kilometres race” Five years before he run his first Half Marathon in this date. Unfortunately Draculina wasn’t so good and she decided to stay at home with the rest of the family.
He did hi personal best with moderately effortless and enjoyed running by Barcelona’s most famous streets and avenues. Despite the good time he said that when he arrived to the finish line he was quite sad because he couldn’t share his joy with anyone.
Hmm, Draculina must go with him next time.
Rabbits and Hares do not jog, we run. Surely you never have seen one of us dressed with a technical outfit for running or wearing a sport shoes with cushion and stability properties, shoes that surely will help you to achieve better results. Of course you won’t see us running with headphones and a stupid iphone attached to our arms. With all those humans trying to imitate the real runners the fact of running is loosing its tempo. Humans run like ballet dancers and we run to survive. The false truth about a biped runner has damaged the running scene and the humans have been confident with this fact.Only those who run for a reason, knows about serious running. And for sure we know about it
So, I just let him to tell about his achievements. Bear in mind that he was really out from the last two kilometres and only me – from home with my friend Daikyn- calling Draculina to help him to finish are responsible for his time.
“Well I must reckon that Miffa is right, I only run in New Zealand
about 120 kilometres with extreme cold and great efforts to
breath normally, our paces and our kilometres, together with a
couple of kilograms that we earned during our “vacation “ were
telling us that the second half marathon will be a disaster.
The same track – two times – steady and hot
A devilish track with a downhill + uphill profile + high temperatures
made the track extremely demanding. We experienced some
problems in the second run about 17-19 kilometres, but finally
we managed to stop the watch at 1:37:10 with the last two
kilometres riding with Draculina attached to my right hands”
It’s a pity that for the first time I have been verbally abused
by a group of runners that make funny words about my cargo pants
while the only reason to wear this outfit is to carry Draculina.
I can tell you that it’s an extra weight and uncomforting matter
that has nothing to be with any fancy or political thinking. I have
really felt very harassed but their words and at some points I was
at the point to talk back to them – of course in a much more
polite way-.
