Cada nueva subida a Montserrat es un nuevo reto, especialmente físico, porque a medida que pasan los años y pesan los kilos y pisan los pies con menos fuerza y más dolor, el tema no parece ir a mejor. Siempre hay que confiar en la veteranía dosificante, y en la certeza de que algún año tiene que ser el primero en que no se consiga, sea por la circunstancias que sea.
La novedad de la salida a las 4:00 AM no es una novedad real, porque mis inicios en esto de las subidas era a las 5:00 AM desde LH y chupando carretera desde allí hasta Monistrol. Eso ahora no sería tan fácil, sobretodo despues de observar que, en 200m. de nacional un poco transitada te aparecen enseguida los Mossos preguntando por tu chaleci reflectante...
Pero más allá de Mossos más o menos aburridos y/o chivatos con manos libres o con gasolineras cercanas, la subida es un fantástico ejercicio físico y de convivencia con tus compañeros de viajes, la mayoría clásicos del clásico, y con un fondo físico y humano admirables, más allá de la mejor o peor excelencia de sus cuerpos.
Y agradecer a esta subida, más allá de haberla acabado a pesar del castigo de dos noches de pocas horas de sueño, el estar aislado de una jornada histórica para muchos y peñazo para otros pocos entre los que me incluyo, tanto por los lugares de "incomunicación" por los que se transita, por los acompañantes poco fanaticos de tal jornada (no hubieran estado allí), así como de que mi resistencia física solo me permitiera resistir el partido, cenar y conectar con el séptimo sueño sin llegar a los seis anteriores.

MMM - Young Forever (Jay-Z | Mr. Hudson)
MINUTOSMUSICALESMENSUALES
Let's dance in style,
Let's dance for a while,
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst,
Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?
Let us die young or let us live forever,
We don't have the power but we never say never,
Sitting in a sandpit,
Life is a short trip,
The music's for the sad man,
Forever young,
I wanna be forever young
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever and ever
Forever young I wanna be
Forever young
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever, forever
So we live a life like a video
When the sun is always out and you never get old
And the champagne's always cold
And the music is always good
And the pretty girls just happen to stop by in the hood
And they hop their pretty ass up on the hood
of dat pretty ass car
Without a wrinkle in today
Cause there is no tomorrow
Just some picture perfect day
To last a whole lifetime
And it never ends
Cause all we have to do is hit rewind
So let's just stay in the moment, smoke some weed,
Drink some wine,
Reminisce talk some sh-t forever young is in your mind
Leave a mark that can't erase neither space nor time
So when the director yells cut,
I'll be fine,
I'm forever young...
[Chorus]
Fear not when, fear not why,
Fear not much while were alive,
Life is for living not living up tight,
See ya somewhere up in the sky,
Fear not die, I'll be alive for a million years, bye bye,
So not for legends, I'm forever young
My name shall survive
Through the darkest blocks, over kitchen stoves,
Over Pyrex pots, my name shall be passed down
to generations while debating up in barber shops,
Young slung, hung here,
Shorty, the n-gga from here
With a little ambition just what we can become here,
And as the father passed his story down to his sons ears,
Younger kid, younger every year, yeah
So if you love me baby this is how you let me know.
Don't ever let me go, that's how you let me know, baby,
[Chorus]
Slamming Bentley doors,
Hopping out of Porsche's,
Popping up on Forbes lists,
Gorgeous,
Hold up,
N-ggas thought I lost it,
They be talking bullsh-t
I be talking more sh-t
They nauseous,
Hold up,
I"ll be here forever
You know, I'm on my fall sh-t,
And I ain't waiting for closure, I will never forfeit,
Less than four bars,
Guru bring the chorus in,
Did you get the picture yet,
I'm painting you a portrait of young...

"Toca ahora otra cosa.
No sé de qué estará hecha, pero otra cosa. Toca volver a saber perder el tiempo, a disfrutar de la mediocridad anodina de lo conocido, del sosiego de lo callado. La vida nos engaña con un falso exceso de confianza producido por las agendas apretadas, la manipulación de otros y las vanidades fugaces. Pero es una falsa seguridad que enseguida se desploma ante la estocada más inesperada pero acertada. La auténtica seguridad está en otra cosa."
