Swim was first and the easiest bit, my fastest time, all breaststroke ( it’s what comes naturally and still my fastest stroke, 76x20metres, 46 mins.
Cycle was next, and the hardest, 40k, but I misjudged my pace and started at low gear fast reps, but learnt about half way, higher gears and slower reps created higher watts and faster mileage cover! Never mind, 1hr 42 and then off outside for the 10k run, a lot faster than I anticipated, thinking by then I’d only manage easy marathon pace, 1hr 5 and quite pleased with it all, job done. The Black Horse for lunch! Next time maybe a sprint triathlon, instead of a full on Olympic distance!
Superb. I’ve tweaked it slightly just to try and better reflect what you did. Also made Xmas Day easy. Even then you’ve got 10pts in the bank if you did want to take more rest. Spin tomorrow for example would be a good one to ditch. But let’s get back to today. Wow!! Superb to run that 10k off the back of the swim and bike just highlights how fit you are right now. It’s impressive and you should be really pleased. Hopefully again it highlights how much satisfaction (I assume you enjoyed it) you can get without having to smash out lots of miles. I actually have a triathlete on the team now and another one interesting in joining which is pretty cool. Awesome work Su.
