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

Recovery drill
10 x 50m rolling catch up
200m easy free in front quadrant
6 x 50m on 20 sec 1 arm drill (25/25)
300m easy shoulder width catch up with pull
10 x 50m on 20 sec finger trail/high weightless arms catch up
200m easy free
6x 50m on 20sec torpedo kick with flippers
300m easy with pull.

Total = 2.6km

Getting on the roller for a few minutes every day to try and get some flexibility into the quads.

Have been feeling fairly flat last few days so bumped up the food, had an early night - it's made a huge difference.

There's a 100km cycle and 15km race pace run planned for Sat or Sun so want to go into that feeling good.

Finished my sign language course today so keen to try it out this weekend.
