Definition of a holiday for the sports obsessives amongst you…
- Somewhere different you go to train for a week or so.
- Somewhere different you go which just happens to coincide with an important race that you’ve always wanted (planned) to do.
- An excuse to demand from your partner equal car space for all YOUR kit
- (Cynically) An Age Group triathlon/duathlon European final.
- Club La Santa (apparently)
- A period of time where extended travelling to/from another, usually warmer, place coincides exactly with your two recovery days.
- Ditto 6. But instead also coinciding with a race AND your taper.
- A time to force your sport onto either your friends and family for a day or so; before giving up and going back to doing what you normally do when ‘not on holiday’ (training).
I’m sure you guys have much better definitions. I need two more to make up the usual list of 10. Help appreciated 🙂
ha ha, we use going to Madeira for Christmas and New Year as not only our WINTER SUN (which is what we tell everyone)… but our winter training ‘top-up’ three weeks of warm sun, fun sweating and trying to keep form… and boy do we use it!
