SFT sprint triathlon

Loved it 

I wanted to have a lovely relaxed morning, no pressure, just swim bike run.

Swim was great

Bike def but faster than I was hoping for

Run felt fine, decided I could have kept going if I needed to

Groin a bit sore but figured I'd just biked 20km before the run so that may have contributed to a bit of soreness

Basically I reckon  I'm just not quite strong enough. 

But I will be

23:24 Sunday night

Glutes are a bit sore

Quads are a bit sore 

Calves are a bit sore 

My massage with Lizzy tomorrow is perfect timing. 

64km bike ride yesterday 🤗

Furthest I've cycled since my accident 

And I loved it 

I think working with Emma can't come soon enough. I'm just not strong enough for what I want to do yet but I know I will be 🎉

Musings on Lizzie goes Long 2026

I'm going to get a coach 

I will ask my solicitor to explore a settlement 

My glutes / groin can still be sore 

Ian said a really interesting thing about going long - it's not just swim bike run, it's also nutrition and sleep. 

I can't wait to get focused and started.

Plus I'm now just under 70kg. That's 10kg less in a year! I wanted to get to 69kg. Now it's not enough, I want to be 65kg and then maybe less. 

2025 is fabulous so far xx

Southampton half marathon - my race report 🤗

What a day.
Loved it.
By 14k I was shattered so the race ended up being a lot more run/walk/walk. I also nipped into Tescos on burgess road for an ice cold ribena and then into work for a cuppa and a sit down. I absolutely loved that I saw so many chums all over the course, so of course had to stop for hugs and a quick catch up 🤣

But I'm mainly delighted that my pelvis felt okay. It was my lower legs that were shot - my poor calves. Although not quite as bad as the last few miles of Weymouth70.3 back in 2017 xx

The finish was very special. Turning right onto London Road knowing that my body had managed the half marathon. Every fibre of my being was screaming with joy as I ran to the finish line.

I am now feeling super confident that Lizzie will indeed be going long in 2026 🥳 (Outlaw)

And then roast dinner at Debbie's before the Brewhouse, Highfield for Southampton Tri Club's AGM.

I'll sleep well tonight!!!
