Back into training in BCN



Hi all, sorry i haven't writen in awhile just a little out of sorts being in the big city and trying to get things sorted before everyone heads out to their holiday destinations. You can see our street that we live on; it's sometimes noisy, sometimes quiet (sundays!) but we love the neighbourhood (Gracia). We are trying to learn as much Espanol as possible and move up to 4hrs/day tomorrow, so learning should come quicker....well hopefully.
I am back into training for the marathon (Barcelona Marathon) to coincide with BarcelonaFit. Hopefully I can crack 2:30.
We have got the start date for BarcelonaFit set for October 1st, 2005 for 25 weeks of training before the March 26 race. We hope it will all work out for us and we are trying our best.
I will write more soon and hopefully more consistantly from now on.

We are busy here at ESPANAFIT

ok, so the business has started and now we are getting the website up, flyers done, business cards finalised and trying to narrow down local sponser. Our Espanol is getting better, but nothing exceptional. We are flat chat with emails and everything...busy, busy, busy. Daniel and Jen Lincoln are here celebrating their 2nd wedding anniversary, so this week has been great catching up with them, although today Dan is having a bad bout of food poisioning. Off to the Tour de France tomorrow for saturday's State 14. Should be fun camping on the side of the 2001 metre mountain!

Everything going well in Barca

Everything is going well here in beautiful Barca. We have had a relaxing weekend and ready to push through more meetings and positive ideas this week. Hoping to solidify some coaches this week and also a track that we can call 'home' for the program. Learning the city bit by bit. Jen was a little sick today, but rested up well and we had a little walk around el barrio de Gracia tonight. We lazed on the beach at Premia de Mar yesterday. Good to get out of the city for the day. Hoping to get to Montserrat this week.
