Welcome

I started this blog in 2010 when there were 11 weeks to go before my next Ironman triathlon. People have found it interesting (mainly my Mum!) so I continue to write.
The Ironman is a long distance triathlon; Swim 2.4miles, Cycle 112miles, Run 26.2 miles (marathon). I have competed in one every year since 2004. I hope this blog can help others see what is involved. I find the process of writing it makes me more accountable and motivates me to do the harder sessions when i'm not feeling like it!

Brick
Cycle 120km round Richmond Park
Treadmill 5 x 2min at 10km pace (16km/hr) on 2min rest

- Not much to report. I was quite anxious before starting as a crash a this late stage would present loads of problems. It all went well. I did the usual changing of position only to end up where I started! I think its got a lot to do with warming up - I need to hold my nerve for a lot longer than i'd expect (2hours +) before making any changes.

- Biked the kids to the childminder in the christiania today - a group of school kids said it was "sick" I think that means good?

- Will helped with my rolling on the golf ball (to massage the knots), this time I managed to get a picture.
Sauna
After put kids to bed
30mins - finally consistently able to do it. Good job as it's probably the last one.
Cycling to the gym on a Friday night - for some reason everyone's driving was appalling.
