Nailed it! Loved it!! I'm a Lakesman :)

From being so nervous to tears of joy at the end. Bloody love my sport!!!

Lakesman Half IM is tomorrow!!!

Alarm set for 4am

I'm so nervous / excited.

Who knows if I'll make the cutoff - however it's the swim / cycle that'll be the most beautiful so if I don't get to run then no worries. Although I reckon as long as I go under an hour for the swim it's game on :)

Best pre race prep? A visit from brother Dave, Kate and the girls. Utterly awesome afternoon.

Must try and get some sleep now 

In Keswick!!!

Two days to go!!!

Gorgeous house, the gangs all here, registered, fluid cutoffs and excited :)

Stuff

Head band for the bike. Both gloves 

Last HB and a run :)

Bike back from bike guy - tri bars great!!

Good session at HB - feeling good about the bike leg...

Then Sue and I went for a run - approx 4K 33mins

Five days and it'll all be over :)

I'm eating my body weight in both highly and not so highly nutritious food. I'm also getting quite nervous. I wonder if the two are related!!

Tobie - Bike Guy has my bike for a checking it's all A-Okay. It always feel real once bike guy has your bike...

HB tomorrow and that's pretty much it. I may bring cossie to work tomorrow for a swim. Didn't bring today... Just wanted a clear day of nothing. Went to bed last night all sore and achey, woke up pretty sore and achey. Kinda usual pre race week really.

Hopefully I'll have a better nights sleep tonight :) 

Last few days - gym and a run after work

This time next week - it'll all be over! How bonkers is that.

Spent about an hour in the gym after work - stretching, bit of strength work, physio exercises for my knee.

Then cycled over to Sharon's for a run.

Approx 4 miles - running through St.James park to the common, around the common then home down Winchester Road. 52.17

Am now showered and ready for food and wine :)
