What a disaster!


Hi, it’s Sergio again and I’m going to talk about a bad experience I had last weekend. I took part in the duathlon in Almazan. This duathlon consists of running 6 kilometres, then cycling 20 kilometres and then running again the final 3 kilometres.

The race started. I ran the first 6 kms in 24 minutes, 2 minutes slower than the first runner and 30 seconds slower than the second. When I got on the bike I was third, but in 5kms I was first.

I was first and I was feeling great, but then something bad happened… I had a puncture in my rear tyre. I decided to continue with a flat rear wheel, but I had to reduce speed so the second competitor reached me, and a kilometre later something even worse happened to me. I had another puncture in my front wheel!!! At that exact moment I realised that I wasn’t going to finish the race. I had to retire.

This was a bad experience that I hope will never happen to me again!!

You was very unlucky! Better luck next time. We are two persons who also like to run and cycle.

Hope that it will never happen for any of us.

Have a nice life!

Maybe you would have won if you did`nt have the puncture.

Better luck next time! ^^
