Lance



Lance Armstrong e cel din cauza am inceput sa ma uit la Turul Frantei. Dupa aceea si-a batut joc de el, adjudecandu-si-l in mod repetat, la fel de repetat umbland la borcanelul cu maclavais interzis.... dar asta e alta poveste.
De curand Lance s-a inscris la celebrul maraton care se desfasoara in New York... a reusit sa termine in sub 4 ore cursa de 42,195(?)km. Important e ca a reusit sa termine. Din punctul meu de vedere, asta e cea mai buna dovada a capacitatilor sale. Sa reusesti in 2 sporturi de rezistenta total diferite e ceva colosal... asta inseamna sa fii campion.

The seven-time Tour de France champion made an impressive marathon debut Sunday, accomplishing his goal of finishing in less than 3 hours and thrilling fans who seemed much more enthused at seeing Armstrong than watching a Brazilian man and a Latvian woman win titles earlier on a crisp autumn afternoon.

Armstrong's time was 2 hours, 59 minutes and 36 seconds. His shirt soaked in sweat, he virtually walked the last couple of steps to the finish line.

smack the penguin spunea...

sub 3 ore. :) dupa calculele mele asta ar da o viteza medie de 14 km/h. uau, asta e un vitezoman. :D iar castigatoarea a alergat cu aproape 20 km/h.
