Too clever by half

It's official I am an idiot.... I have been meaning to update this blog with my (admittedly not very) exciting adventures.

 

So I get a good idea about how it is all going to be done in pictures or done using the intros from famous songs... Then never quite get round to writing the flipping thing!

 

So I will keep it simple

1) had sore ligaments in my ankle for last couple of weeks, mainly through over training. I have been running more than other things and like a hippo in high heels my ankles have taken a battering

2) got my first event booked for Sunday, Padiham Aquathlon. Basically a 600m swim then 5km run. Until tonight I had no idea whether it was doable but after a 30 min run thing feel ok

3) two weeks ago I was very brave. I had to pick my camper up from its mot so instead of getting a lift I decided to run there. 4.5km downhill then through the delightful splendour of accrington. Really nice bit was a guy who was training for a tri came running up and ran with me for a big to encourage me. Off he galloped like a sleek gazelle leave the plodding hippo feeling a little more happy.

4)working evenings has encroached into my training time so I invested in a turbo trainer.

It means you can use your road bike inside and still get a workout.

It is a blessing and a curse... An instrument of torture that tenderises your undercarriage....

 

So that's it up to date.... I think...
