It was hilly. Going up was difficult for me. But I catched up with "El marnillo" and talked to him for some seconds. Then he left me behind. The chain came out twice! (bad mainenance at Ciclolínea!).

Great swim!  Too bad about the water bottle.  Nice revelation about your climbing.  At least you didn't run the whole 5k with the helmet

Keep up the improvement
