 | swim 40:00 [2] | |
| |
| swim in Bala with Rocky and Scooby - was chilly enough to be glad for the wetsuit! |
| road ride 3:15:00 [4] | |
| |
| road ride after swim - Scooby and Rocky held a blistering pace for me, and the first half hurt alot...I settled in for the second half after venting my grievances, and felt alot better - adjusted the aerobars and realised how much they can help. Seems I may be stronger in the water than on the bike...who knew?? |
| road run 45:00 [2] | |
| |
| short run after the ride, but the legs felt heavy to start, so it seemed longer - |

| swim 45:00 [3] | |
| |
| quick change and headed to Hunter's for 2 laps of the lake - first long swim in the wetsuit - hard to get used to - seems it hinders my left arm, so my hand fell asleep, but I think the suit was problably just crooked...swimming felt faster though; at least I'll float for awhile if I pass out during the race! |
