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!

Feeling a bit dodgy today – Ella has had D&V for the past couple of days and had to take over from someone at work who had similar on Tuesday – have been trying to avoid anyone with a cold. I guess more will be revealed, will probably back off a bit.

Saw chiropodist to sort out foot - risky as unknown territory, having a someone wave a knife around near your foot was interesting. Think he was a little over zealous and now have a sore spot - have to hope it works out. Was meant to do a run but will skip it today. I received loads of replys from people at the serpentine running club www.serpentine.org.uk all recommended the chiropodist route.
