Why Black Knight

The name Black Knight comes from this famous joke in roman slang. A man tells this story:
The Black Knight and the White Knight make a duel and the Black Knight kills the White Knight. Now the White Knight had 3 sons, they challenge the Black Knight to a duel and the Black Knight kills all of them. Now they had 3 sons each and the 9 White Knights challenge the Black Knight to a duel but the Black Knight kills of all them. Now they had 3 sons each and the 27 White Knights challenge the Black Knight to a duel but the Black Knight kills all of them.
Please stop the story, what do you mean, what is the moral?
The moral is: "Don't piss off the Black Knight"!!!!!!!!!

Images from the battlefield

Medical check and training update. Worried for the weakness that appeared during 2 workouts at the end of June I went to the doctor and I did a series of laboratory tests. The tests are ok, so now I have only to follow my doctor's advice, waiting for better times: running without minding pace and distance.
Let's see what will happen in the near future.

Images from the battlefield. As I wrote on my last post the Black Knight Army is a group of goliardic friends who pretend to be warriors, every race a battle etc.
Here are some epic images of the legendary Black Knight Army on the battlefield:









Do you have epic images like these? If you have please share.

  1. At least you've ruled out anything really worrying. Is it suddenly really hot where you are? That always knocks people back. I had to abandon my run yesterday and just have a walk with my friends!

    1. Yes terribly hot 36°C/97F. Better to run in early morning, today I made the workout at 06.15 a.m.
      Yesterday you made the right decision.

  2. Glad to hear that you have ruled out any medical issues. I think we are all struggling with the heat and it only seems to get harder as I age.

    1. The same here, it seems to get harder as I age. Until few years ago it was not a real problem for me.

  4. I was supposed to wear a heart monitor after I saw my doctor to discuss fatigue. I never did go to get it...oops! I am the worst patient. Probably because I am a medical provider myself...

    1. I am sure you understand very well what is better for you.
      However my doctor said: "don't worry probably it's the heat".
