94 days to go

HB with Sue, 60mins on the stationary bike
Covid booster 
90mins 19km on the knock off Brompton off to check out the Ashtead allotments, up by the old Goblin works, over to Langley Vale and the Downs then back to mums.
Was fabulous 
I cannot cycle on sand - was on the bridal path 

And now?

Fast twitch sprint triathlon

OMG
It was glorious 
Plus I was 6mins faster than last year 
I had absolutely no urgency. 
Loved it

Swim felt so smooth, I could have kept that pace up for hours 
I felt so strong on the bike and was on the tri bars loads
The run was just fun. I did 9mins run / 1 min walk. I felt so fresh at the end of the race. 
Sooooo happy 🤗

Then recovered at the allotment
Then last STC AGM as membership sec (these last 11 years as STC’s membership sec have been  a joy and a privilege)

Plus Andy had a huge tub of high5 carb drink powder - I grabbed it as that’s what’ll be at the Outlaw.

All in all, a top top day x

99 days to go - sprint tri tomorrow morning

Rest day today
My sleep isn’t great - I’m wondering if I was over stimulated from the 95k bike ride then seeing Louise and Linda in Winchester last night? 

Anyways, rest day today - nice and chilled 
Bonus big sis Debs Hub visit which was fabulous 

Then supper at the Ali’s

Home to prep for tomorrow 
Very excited xx
