47 days to go - half IM run through

The swim was fine in the pool at Jubilee
The bike ride was lovely with Jenny - we had tea at the Bakehouse, we dodged some rain, we had sunshine but we also had rain. 
Managed 72km and then it really chucked it down so I called it a day 😂
We went to Lemon & Jinga in Romsey - met Tina then back to hers to check out her garden.
Home by 6:30pm
Our for a run - managed 15km and then decided that was enough.

I’d be a DNF if this was an actual race
Great nutrition on the bike
Not so sure about the run nutrition this evening  but there will be so much food on the run at the actual Outlaw so I’m not at all worried about that.

Feet sore
Need to relook at my socks for the run. 

Such a great day
I am tired though and that’s not even half of what I’ll be doing in just under 7 weeks!!

50 days to go 🥰

3 years ago I was gearing up for the Outlaw just like I am now although I def feel better prepared this time around. 

Got x2 pairs new cycling shoes from Jacqui - they’re fabulous. So happy. Will take to Dave on Wednesday for my bike fit. Very glad I’ve got mums car as it was raining this morning. No cycling to work via Totton 😅

I am feeling very proud of myself 
Got home and within 5mins was back out and on my town bike for 48mins of cycling - 14.5km.

It’s starting to get very real.
Ran this evening in Fetcham as gave Katie a lift to ballet. Ran approx 8.75km in about 1:05
That would be a just under 6 hour marathon.
