The half-ironman triathlon is also known as a middle distance triathlon, which is a shame. It makes it sound pretty unimpressive - like swimming 1.9 thingies, cycling 90 other thingies and then running a half marathon is just mediocre. It's not.
Thirdly it involves running a half marathon. I would say firstly but of course the run bit happens at the end, and I've already sort of managed the 1.9 swimming thingies followed by the 90 other cycling thingies, although it wasn't pretty and my legs stopped working when I got off my bike.
So I need to learn how to run a half marathon.
Hell, I need a PLAN.
In other news.....
Last night I stayed in with CS, played some bananagrams and drank lots of tea. Today I went out with CS for a nice long country walk, stopping at a farm shop on the way home. When we got home I started baking. Have I suddenly become middle-class, or even worse, middle-aged?
