Testing, training and racing

The season has started, finally.
Business-wise, the new Caffé product range keeps me very busy with last minute product specification refinements, graphics, production/ordering, packing and shipping. Caffélatex and related products clearly address to a much wider audience compared to Giustaforza torque wrench, so the number of contacts and feed-backs is at least one order of magnitude higher.
The season is clearly on also for outdoor sports, and I'm having some difficulties fitting my training sessions in the tight working schedule. To justify my rides to the boss (myself), I pretend that while cycling I double as test-dummy... so during the last rides, while adjusting and getting used to the aero-position on the Guru, I also added kilometers on Caffélatex tubeless-converted road wheels (so far, so good).
And then, I've completely changed my running technique following the suggestions of some real runners. I'll test the new stride this Sunday (half-marathon). Next Sunday it will be road-racing (Bra-Bra granfondo) with hardly half of the kilometers I would need to be 'decent' in my legs... but of course all that is just training for the long distance triathlon of Candia, mid May. It seems like I won't get bored in the next few weeks...
