This morning there was something in the air, in the breakfast I ate, or in the coffee I drank. I'm not quite sure but I understood that today would be the record day. I pumped the tires, put my clothes on and went out. I did a good warm up until Thermi and then started the Hortiatis mountain uphill till the top to the radar. I returned to Thermi via Panorama. And because one equals none and with the second you can not be sure, you do a third one. TRIPLE HORTIATIS MOUNTAIN UPHILL. Something I was thinking about since last summer. After the double I did, and after the fact that mr. Thomas Timamopoulos, one of the best Greek cyclists ever, used to telling me that he had done a triple Hortiatis uphill wen he was young, I decided to give it a try. And succeeded. 2 powerbar gels, a sesame bar and 1 liter of water was all I needed. Also for the first time in global, I enter the word ''Thassos training'' which is exactly what someone has to do to go well on Thassos ultra marathon. While I was climbing for the third time, an idea came to me. To organise a 24 hour Hortiatis uphill race. The one who do most uphills in 24 hours wins. The bad thing with these uphills is hypothermia on the downhill. Imagine that I did 3 of them. Now it's time for a frappe and watch a movie. Until next time...
