My first triathlon is around 12 weeks away.
Realistically the next 6 weeks are make or break for my tri dreams - unless I build a decent base I have no chance of completing let alone competing.
I am swimming almost every morning. Rather than thrashing up and down the pool I am concentrating on my form. I have noticed that the first 200 - 300 metres are a struggle, but once I warm up and get into a rhythm I feel okay.
In fact the toughest part is getting on a early bus. Has anyone caught the bus at 6 in the morning? It is a different world out there
This morning I watched in awe as a guy ate fruit loops straight from the box. Not a small pack but a 1kg box. If that was not bad enough he was jamming them into his mouth handfuls at a time. While he wore woollen gloves.
It was bizarre.
For some reason the bus was actually full by the time I got on. As I settled into my standing up spot a youngish girl offered me her seat.
Now I know I do not look the best first thing in the morning but I do not look that old...........
Do I?
Cheers
Greg
PS back on the bike tonight I hope the hamstring holds up!
