Swimming lesson

I thought my swimming was going fine until last night when I had my first lesson. It would seem that I am doing pretty much everything wrong. Leg kick (what leg kick?), arm pull, catch etc...etc...but can still do 1000m in 20 mins!. Not sure if I carry on or just go with it and see if it does indeed benefit at all.

Another milestone - cycled 110 kms last week in 4:20. First time over the century.

Another milestone

This morning, before 08.30 I swam the full Ironman distance of 3.8 km in the swimming pool in 1:35:23. So, whilst not super fast, I have proved to myself that at least I can swim the distance.

.....now where's that bike?........

Dancing on ice

When it is this cold even the idea of training makes me shiver - but didn't stop me riding for 2 hours today. All part of the madness.
