Cross de Sants - 3k

Today it was Jordi's time to run and he was on a mission. Last year in the Cross de Sants he had stitches and did not finish, so this year he was very much decided to do finish.

We arrived nicely on time to first see the youngest kids run and then Jordi lined up for his race.

While Jordi was waiting with Montse to be shot away I walked up to the 1k mark to make pictures and run along with him from there onwards.

As you can see in the picture the kids were really flying and Jordi was determined to keep the fast pace, so for the next pictures I really had to do a full out sprint to have time to turn around and push a button on time.

Soon we were in the last kilometer and on the last straight Jordi did have a little internal struggle but his experience from Chamonix had taught him he could fight that and continue, and soon he switched to sprinting away from me and once again I really had to run very hard to make the picture at the finish-line. Montse meanwhile was cheering Jordi on a few meters before the finish and made the next nice picture of Jordi in has last sprint.

The official time is 12m39s , which is really fast for a 3k!!!!

Well done Jordi!!! Mission accomplished!

A little massage and plenty of water and a good piece of cake helps to recover!!!
