100 days to go!!!

Today has been rather awesome
Needless to say if I didn’t have Suzanne I’d of bailed way before 95km

Kelly joined us for the Lepe loop as she’s doing 90k ride at the end of May
Love her action shots of us cycling 

Suzanne dragged me along 
I used the tri bars loads 
Was easily doing 25-33km per hour which I’ll need to be doing by the Outlaw so I make the swim/bike cutoff of 10hours with time to spare.
Ate well and my tummy is def getting used to digesting more on the go. I do though need to make my trail mix into flapjack for easier eating. 

I am tired
I will sleep well tonight
I had a lovely evening in Winchester eating chicken chow mein with Louise & Linda

No swimming costume at mums!!!

Blast
I could have sworn I had a swimming costume at mums. This morning as I was packing my bag for swimming - no costume 😕

So cancelled my swim and went back to bed for an hour then S&C while chatting to Sue & Jenny.

However, once I get a cossie sorted at mums - early morning swimming at the leisure centre will be so easy.

Claire & Phil for lunch 
Back to Soton by 8:45pm
Snacks for bike ride tomorrow sorted

102 days to go!

The Outlaw is creeping ever closer

Today has been fun
Started with HB chatting to Suzanne 
Lunch with Nana
Cycled to Letterhead Leisure Centre - bike session to get there then a gym class 

I’m really enjoying feeling myself getting stronger 
Swim & Bike have to be the focus 
If I make the cutoffs I’ll be fine with the Run.

105 days to go

54min bike ride before work 
This was the bike 4-6mons then 30sec of hard effort x10. It’s a good one.
I feel like I’m doing HB outside 🥳💪

Left work early for a takeaway and the Amy & Andy’s wedding pics. Great fun.

Off to work the long way round

No S&C when I got home but my kitchen floor and lounge carpet are sparking 🤗

I’m really enjoying the extra long cycle to work in the morning. Sneaking in an extra 30-35mins each time
