Flu update

OK, new plan.  I got a cold or flu and from Wednesday lunchtime until Sunday lunchtime I did nothing. Wednesday morning I did a very slow swim, that was already clearly suffering from being ill. The sniffled my way through the day thinking it was just a sniffle and decided that I should skip my evening run and turbo to just spend the time trying to recuperate. And Thursday I slept almost 18 hours. While it has just been a minor sniffle since then, I wasn't able to get out and do any actual training until Sunday afternoon, when Slioch and I managed a very short, and very slow jog. So that leaves me on December 18th. Two weeks until year end, still looking for: 7 miles of swimming, from 5 possible swim sessions before the pools close for Xmas. 154 miles of biking, with limits on what I can get after the 23rd unless I start hauling a bike and/or turbo-trainer around the country with me. 71.6 miles of running. Which works out at just over 5 miles a day now.  If I was to apply some...

December plan

A quick addition to review where I am and what is left for me to do before the end of the year. I have a holiday the first week, and a holiday the last week, so I have time. But I have other things on so depends how many other adventures we get up to in that time.  Running.  I have 119 miles to go. That is 3.8 miles a day. Definitely do-able, but I need to either do every day in a Marcothon style, or put in a bunch of decent distance runs.  Biking. I have 200 miles to go. That is 6.5 miles a day. Again, do-able, but a marcothon approach isn't going to work for that. I don't have the commitment to get on the turbo every day. I also still need to ride 12 new routes or trails so I need to toughen up and go outside in the cold and get some longer rides in. Mountain biking I am not going to make, but have known that for months and basically haven't ridden that bike since I snapped the frame in Italy.  Swimming. I have 15.9 miles still to swim. This one looks ambitiou...

Race Review - ITU Cross Triathlon

This was back on the savage course from the Cross Duathlon two days earlier.  I purposefully held back on the swim. I started at the back of the pack and then gradually moved through the field as we went. I managed to get in behind the group for a bit and was getting towed along nicely out through the tide and swell, I then lost touch with them as we made the first turn but got into a separate group with three of us working as our own mini pack and gradually passing some of the younger age groups as we made our way back in.  I came out of transition with my fastest ever 1,000m swim time, but feeling fairly relaxed having not over-worked in the water. It was a very long transition and again I was pretty clean through transition, although I did stop for socks and a drink, and was comfortable going out on to the bike.  The bike was not quite the course from the Duathlon but was 98% the same. The 'dangerous' section that they took out was a bit that I had no problems on and a...
