I need to admit something to you. I do it with a slight pain, looking at the title of the blog, but unfortunately: June Karkonoszman<\/a> and the July Enea Bydgoszcz Triathlon were the events I've been waiting for this year the most. This is the first year in which I do not throw in a row for the following time the same road race: Jarna Klasika, Beskid Loop, Tatra Tour, \u017bTC, CykloGdynia, etc. I have been a little bit overstayed. Although cycling is much more unpredictable than triathlon, watching once again the same places, racing with the same people and repeating the patterns lost some charm.<\/p>\n

Because even though every race can go completely differently and sometimes in the 200-kilometer race in the Tatras I am already completely puked at the 10th kilometer, and sometimes I'm still fresh up 80 kilometers away, the triathlon is something new and undiscovered for me, and the thought of the first races aroused emotions similar to the first races on the road and the first Mazovia MTB.<\/p>\n

I treat the Enea Bydgoszcz Triathlon as a debut. Karkonoski Triathlon<\/a> he was murderously heavy, but he did not have much in common with classic races at distances expressed as Ironman fractions. Triathlon IT<\/a> it was also somewhat specific, and for me it ended right after swimming. Why Bydgoszcz? Because the organizer invited me<\/del>. Because practically the entire trinternet (I learned from co-starters that as a triathlete I have to press the prefix 'tri' everywhere), he agrees that not only is it the best organized competition in the country, it is also the best choice for beginners. Why the distance 1\/2? With my logistical deficiencies, my strangeness in transition zones and the small number of hours I spent beyond my power threshold, I found this one to be the most enjoyable and the least stressful. Somewhere in the subconscious I was also afraid that Bydgoszcz would be much more difficult than the Karkonosze - speed is more difficult for me than endurance.<\/p>\n

I was going to Bydgoszcz excited about the start. It's a great feeling. I enjoyed swimming, riding a new bicycle and running.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We are close to Bydgoszcz, about 3 hours by car from the center of Warsaw. Unless it is Friday and we leave the capital, or Sunday and we return to it - then more 5 to 6. So we arrive at around 20, get the starter packet, empty the nearby food trucks (maybe it waits a long time and the food is so, but at least everything is expensive), we visit the sports expo and we are moving into the city.<\/p>\n
