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!

Swim

Warm up 600m
Catch up focus on body roll 10 x 100m on 15s
Front quad pull (easy pace) 1 x 400
Paddle/pull front quadrant 5 x 100 (Small paddles, finis freestylers, finis PT paddles, Small paddles, Small paddles)

total 3000m
Really trying to focus on a little finger first entry into the water on the right side - years of doing it thumb first to over ride.

listen to podcast today - marathon talk - interview with Ed Whitlock - amazing, he has all the records for marathons over 70 etc, (he did sub 3hrs at 70 y.o.) and is the age adjusted fastest runner in the world!
