Work, swim, work

Currently my 400m is 11mins and my 200m is 5mins so basically the 1.9k will take me about 55mins if it's nice weather, not to choppy, I don't have a little panic, sighting is okay, I'm not miles behind the pack at the start etc...

Works for me :)

What a day!!!

Talk about packing it all in.

A really tough HB session today and tried out my new tri bars. They make cycling easier but also tough to remain on the bars for long periods of time... 
Session was brutal. Ducked out of a few sets. Nearly just gave up. The old Lizzie would have but I just kept going. So pleased with myself :)

Then cuppa with Sue and Jenny.

Massage at noon.
Nic's 50th bday pressie. 
Loved it. 

Mettricks Woolston - Vik and Rosie.
Food, wine and catch up. Loved it.

Lidls.
Popcorn.
In bed by 10:30pm

Watersports, new tri bars and lakeside.

4.5 hours of jet washing.
Wiggle box arrived - tri bars fit!
Lakeside for 5 laps - approx 1650m in 43.18 :)
Happy with that.
Then watched the aquathlon - lots of ringing of the cowbell

Tough mental strength :)

I so wanted to stop before the end of the session today but I didn't. Am now feeling epic. Quietly confident I'll hit the cutoffs. But if I don't. Well I don't...

Lakeside tomorrow eve for last long lake swim. Hopefully five laps before the aquathlon.
