Just four days to go, I honestly cannot believe how quickly the last 12 months has gone and we are now in the week of the Ironman. Bloody dreamt about it last night too, hope that doesn’t happen again this week I need all the rest and sleep I can get before Saturday’s 3.30am alarm call.
Not done much since crashing the bike last week – went to Salford for 4 laps of the the Quays on Thursday, trying to get a skin tight wetsuit on and off over a very bruised and cut knee is not recommended I can assure you! Then spent the weekend away in Hastings and London. Went to Hastings and had BBQ Fri, trip to Wembley for the rugby final on Sat, then I was Godparent to my niece Isabella on Sunday….had a fantastic weekend although probably not ideal the week before The Big Woody – drank and ate way too much but at least it took my mind off next weekend.
Went out for a little half hour plod today and my knee seems to work ok, although I don’t think I will be winning any prizes for the nicest looking legs! Also went and picked my bike up from the shop after it’s service and the man in the local bike shop reckons after a few tweaks here and there it is now running perfectly – wonder if there is anywhere I can put my body in for a service to get that running perfectly?!
Plan for rest of the week is to have a short bike sesh tomorrow and a short swim Thurs. Rest of my time will be taken up with trying to pack and make sure I have everything I will need on the day. It is all way too hectic!
