Porto - 14 weeks to go!!

As proposed, all my good friends agreed to join Porto marathon as well. It is the first time we are participating in a big sport event all together, wish will be the first of many. We will try to come together with similar equipment, red as Benfica, will be nice for the team photo.

We are at the moment 14 weeks away, we have started our preparations, there has been a big debate about the training programs, but this is always difficult to recommend, it is very personal and depends on individual own goals.

HF, JR: Marathon
RC, CV: 14 Km
HA, PI: 6 Km

From my side I'm following the same program as I have used the last 4 years but this time will also had some cycling and swimming.

But the best part of it will be the weekend. Porto is famous by the Oporto wine, and will be great to visit the caves once again and taste this fantastic Portuguese wine, famous all over the world. Saturday lunch will in Ribeira, for sure cod fish or octopus will be the choice of many of us.

Really looking forward for it, miss my country and my friends!!
