after 4 1/2 marathons legs don’t work
Did 6 miles on a bike took me about 25 mins, then 1 1/2 mile run took 11 mins
sun is shining so off to the pub to do more training

I only Managed 10 Miles and did it in 59 minutes. I’d like to say it was hilly, but it really isnt.

I did go on a treadmill the other day and covered 1km, yes only 1. This took be 8 min and hurt. The swim might be easy, although I’ve not been swimming for 20 years. I’ve been in a pool, but only splashing around with the kids. The bike park is my strongest, I’m on a borrowed bike at the moment, but hope to have a new one but the event. Currently training in the area only, covering 20 miles in 1:20, 20 years ago this would have been only 50 min, but looking to shave at least another 15 mins off this before the triathlon. Triathlon, splash around – bike – walk. Then back to Trudi’s for bacon rolls. Trudi?
