many centuries ago an unparalleled strategist decided that the granite ridge above the plain near a river was an ideal place to set camp and defend against enemy attacks. His decision was endorsed by as many people who passed through here, improving their defenses to stop building a While solid wall that has survived to this day has become one of the most important monuments of the peninsula and one of the finest examples of medieval architecture.
Three hundred sixty runners yesterday we found that, indeed, climb these slopes is a "Jart cansao." That without a helmet, armor, shield and spear. With all that it had not raised or the first of the race. But not before being skewered by arrows defenders.
That's it. What career more tired! I think that everyone, from first to last, with one exception, always there, just broken the second climb of the Old Round. At least they had the spectators that line the climb to encourage sustained "climbers." And so all the riders commented on the "chat" after the race. A hill with three legs in a zig-zag. The first kind of poles, as the cost comes down over a mile at full speed, to punish. The second kind of flags, to twist the muscles and bring them to the limit. The third highest lot, if anything is in the legs, otherwise only the will to arrive at the Gate Santa and from there softening slope, Flea forward, reaching the Great Square. And all this, if you play something well, to sprint. Supposedly.
This race is of giving respect (even fear) at first. And after that is like having run. It's different. It's short, but tough. Is fast but influences the strategy enough so that if you choose the wrong beat, pay expensive and if you hit, make up positions at the end. Is uphill or downhill. There is no middle.
now I see the ratings and see that there is a high level. Luis Miguel Sanchez the eighth, back on track, is like a shot. Borja the eleventh, very well. Vincent is very strong, after midnight in Segovia is fine and running the marathon on Sunday in Madrid (Did these people and not get tired? Do not you legs hurt?). Diego Jimenez not only runs fast, he also knows when to keep and when to fold, but has a good teacher. Ricardo, now more back than it can deliver, but macho, the body needs a break ... Alfredo Cuellar Jr. and Jorge Hernandez (Torrubias Jr), you can not fight against youth. July, he trained with a hang glider and I doing series and I take twenty seconds ... a few brothers Moreno ... to attack from all sides. The first girls. Jose Luis Arroyo fireproof. The Brothers Of Case, recovering. Yuste, Yolanda, Benito ... Manolo, Longi, Teresa and Mercedes ... here it comes again I climb the steep hill with her, encouraging her. What is the merit!
Another race over the track. Superb organization. Again. Do not forget the effort it takes to mount throughout the race, lest the force of habit makes us take it that this is worth organizing to move the nose like Bewitched did.
