[quote="Mr. Cleetus"]wakey wakey!
yeah I know but I've been sickie sickie with flu!!
I was quietly ticking over and was ready to jump into winter training proper. Spent most of last week in bed ached all over and had the sinuses from hell, thought my head was going to explode.
On the mend now, desparate to get out there. Been making big decisions!!!
Found a good compromise for next season. Was unsure between doing a season of halfs or doing a full Ironman. Well why not both. haha I've said it now. August 25th The Big Woody, an Ironman Distance race. Local to me, low key no frills race, about 1/3 the price of an M Dot race. (£125 for a full Ironman), Undulating bike and a trail run, perfect for a first IM in 10 years. After that I might be able to convince Mr I that he really needs a May 2013 holiday in Lanzarote. I'm planning to include lots of races and cycling sportives in the training. (putting all eggs in one basket and crashing on bike with a week to go blew my head last time). Blimey what am I saying, Is it the flu, am I imagining this? lol watch this space! It's all rather exciting!
