Run 5km

There's going to be a lot of this "run 5km"! Would've swam but pool has strange hours - kids on a Saturday.

A fair bit of cycling with the tribe.

Run 5km

My standard 5km run. This time last year it was hurting just to do 1km. It's a world better but I massively over-reached on the bike - it's not surprising it's taking as long to get better.

Rest

Too tired after marathon period of work, even if it was satisfying.

Rest

36hour shift for work + very short staffed. On call overnight - zero chance for exercise.
Had my follow up orthopaedic appointment - I had been told I need a hip replacement and this was the confirmatory MRI. Looks like I still do - "he'll do one whenever i've had enough"

So the plan is to soldier on and try and get round this 10th Ironman - before going under the knife. Boo-hoo.

Weight loss more important than ever - need to pick a date to start that.

5Km Run

Very busy at the moment so the entries will be short 

18 weeks to go till Ironman UK - back to the blog!

This year will be the 10th in a row Ironman UK. It's hit and miss whether i'll get to the start line as i've been told I may need a hip replacement!!! (it's congenital maybe with a bit of overuse?!)

Anyway, I will do my best to get round this year.

I'll keep the entries short and sweet till I get up and running with it.

Today - 45min swim mainly drill.
