Vucko is staying with us!

Since this Sunday evening, we are no longer with the three of us: Stephan Vuckovic ( silver medal OS Sydney) is staying in our condo for 4 days. Afterwards, he will join Thomas Hellriegel, when the latter arrives in Hawaii. Sofie and I got acquainted to Stephan and Thomas during some training camps in Club La Santa in Lanzarote. We are going along quite well, that’s why we thought it was a good idea to host Stephan for a few days. And that way Tille now has yet another playing mate. I hope Stephan’s girlfriend will not be jealous: Tille is following him everywhere. Even in his bedroom, he is not safe from her!
This week, I read on a forum that somebody found that my life as a triathlete was rather boring. A little reaction to that statement: First of all, in the last 3 years, I have experienced more than what an average triathlete will live through in his entire life. So please believe me: I prefer this boring life to all those miseries. Moreover, life is a little boring over here indeed. I am sitting here on a fantastic island for 5 weeks with my wife and daughter. I am training every day in a beautiful sun and in an idyllic scenery. And then, to finish off the day, I am playing a little with Sofie and Tille in the swimming pool. You have to agree that a nine-to-five job in rainy Belgium gives more satisfaction. -:)
I am going to bed now, because tomorrow morning I have planned a swim training in the ocean, together with Stephan. I’d better sleep well, otherwise I will not be able to follow him.
