What drives you towards a certain race or another

Honestly I don’t even know where to start. I fe $Honestly I don’t even know where to start. I feel like I owe you some explanation about how things have gone over the past 4 weeks so this is probably the best way to begin. Compared to the first elbow fracture (December 2021), things have gone much better time. There are several reasons, the two main ones being - a 16 day wait at home, with a broken arm, from the accident with the bike to the day of my operation. Consequences of covid, yes - the fact that I had a damaged artery that caused a great hematoma which took a really long time to go away (over 2 months) After removing the stitches from the cut, I restarted training with motivation being close to zero and a no real desire to feel good about it. That was approximately 10 days ago. One can have the best training plan in the world, but without a purpose or a direction he’s not going to make anything out of it. And I feel like I have lost this purpose, which apparently is pretty simple to understand: just staying healthy, feeling good about my body, enjoying the small progresses and all the good things that contribute to a sense of “moving forward”. It’s hard to admit it, but that’s just how I have felt about this whole situation. Last Saturday, at @montee_du_nidaigle, I was going to support @glo_87 and the other runners in their race, but instead of walking/running the course by myself, I didn’t want to be alone and asked @poncet_elise if I could still sign up. It ended up being a decent effort which cleared some doubts whether I can still do this thing of running up and down on alpine trails. Not all of them, though, as it’d be too easy if things were like that. The good news is that I’m healthy enough to (re-re-re…)start doing some training again, that the elbow is improving week by week, and I’m constantly working on rehab and PT. So this is to put into perspective the choice of running such a great, iconic race as Montée du Nid d’Aigle the other day. Regarding my future plans, I’m still considering many options and I actually remain very open to any suggestion. #running #alpine #trailrunning #mountainrunning #niketrail #montblanc #stopthemadness #teambadlands 📸 king @noa_barrau$

Ieri alla @neirivue_moleson sono caduto verso metà gara e mi sono rotto - di nuovo - il gomito sinistro, a distanza di sei mesi dalla prima frattura. Sono comunque riuscito a portare a termine la gara chiudendo terzo in 1:01:23, anche se l’interesse per il mio risultato passa totalmente in secondo piano, principalmente per due motivi: l’incidente, il fatto che subirò una nuova operazione e un percorso di riabilitazione doloroso e difficile come già ho potuto sperimentare, e perché ieri @remi_bonnet ha mostrato in tutta la sua classe cosa vuol dire correre forte in montagna, abbattendo un record storico che apparteneva a Jonathan Wyatt, facendolo con una prorompente dimostrazione di potenza, eleganza e coraggio, facendomi sentire in qualche modo privilegiato per essere stato lì, almeno per una parte di gara a correre con lui. Non ho molto da aggiungere se non che mi dispiace, per me stesso e per chi aveva creduto e investito tanto nel mio percorso di crescita e imperfezione. Ora vado a cercare un po’ di risorse per affrontare questa nuova prova che la vita mi pone di fronte. #mountainrunning #trailrunning #fractured #neirivuemoléson #lesalpages #niketrail #imperfection #trailaddicted #sharethetrail$
