Now the Fun Starts

Yesterday was a big disappointment when I had to pull out of my first triathlon of the season due to bike mechanics:(  But thanks to my good friends Kelly and Eddie Mendoza between them and Stuart we got it sorted and having been out for a short technical spin on it;  wow what a difference with the handling, I've often found the front a bit shakey but assumed it was me and it seems to have gone!

My next and final stage of my training prior to my taper commences today; when I prepared for a marathon I always did a 9 week build up of 6 weeks high mileage,  2 weeks speed and race week.   That is where I'm at now and I'm going to follow the same format for this final 9 weeks;  still using the IM plan but adjusting it a little.

I'm currently planning it out in terms of what days I'm doing what; today started with a short spin and run with striders as it is a holiday so planned in family fun which is nice as over the next 6 weeks I'm going to have to put my selfish hat on!
