Keep on running Serge.
Yesterday, a faithful net friend headlined "keep on running Sergio". He didn’t know how right he was. He continues and on the right way. 49,7 miles ( 80km) in less than 8 hours. Now that’s what’s called having a good head for numbers, normal for this ex-financial adviser. Start under a starry sky, three going through spider cobwebs, that means luck. Campo Grande is the target, with the head in the handlebar he "engranges" the kilometres. Admitting a little slowdown towards the thirty first mile, he even deeps his head down to avoid suffering from the horizontalness and the tarmac walls which tower up in front of him at regular intervals. Instead of looking forward, he’d rather, now and again look on the sides to watch the scenery. You reassure yourself and pull yourself together as you can. He likes to be described as a contemplative person. That’s what makes him run "Tranquillo" like our Brazilian friends say. Brazil has given him, until now, a warm welcome, we hope that it will stay like that till the day of the arrival. On the team side, we stick together. It’s obvious that tiredness can be felt (Luckily, we have bought deodorants!) Not having found the dictionary on the computer yet we may make mistakes again. Sorry in advance. Thank you for your loyalty, and for your many messages of encouragement.
