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!

Cycle 

From Worcester to Oxford (50miles) First fasting ride of the year - did the first 25miles before eating anything. I found this worked well last year. I hope to build up to 50-60miles. It follows from a comment Bradley Wiggins said; "an hour before breakfast is worth two after". Ironman is a essentially a fuelling competition and this really helps.
