Update - 90k bike ride Tuesday 27/6

Okay, so today is a rest day - thank goodness as i am sooo tired

On Tuesday27/6 I cycled 90k in 4:45
Was with Jenny for 1:30 and then Fi for 2:00 and then cycled the long way home from Eastleigh to get in another 1:15 - ideally i should have cycled for another 45mins but needed to get home and showered as up to Ashtead that evening to see cousin Ruth 😍

And FYI - i LOVE my new bra - I couldn't feel it at all!
Am hoping to swim in Shepperton Lake this Sunday so will see how it feels after an open water swim 

31 days to go
One month till my 1st full ironman distance triathlon
Am i ready??

I may have just finished - 10:33pm in exactly 5 weeks time xx

Crikey

So I got up today at 6:30am
Met Jenny 8am - was out for 6 hours but my bike moving time was 4:30 and I did 87km

Home by 2pm
Have lunch, made a sausage casserole for the slow cooker then off on a run via James' new pad in Woolston and a cuppa / visit

Run = 6.5km, 1 hour 

Shower, put washing on them off to Karyn and Sharons for food, drinks - B and Marcella also there. Was lovely. A good couple of hours sat in the garden drinking tea 

Just got home and now watching Elton John's Glastonbury set

Basically in 5 weeks time I'll be doing PE for all of this time. It's utterly ridiculous when you look at it this way 😂


Outlaw prep learning :

I need a new sports bra - just not comfy for 16-17hours of wearing 
Will go to M&S tomorrow 💪

Brunch bars are awesome so will def have at least 3 of them in my top box.

35 days to go

36 days to go

One of the absolute joys of training for an IM while working a 12 hour shift is having to grab training when you can. 
Today I ran as the sun was setting. 
It was fabulous.


5k, 45minutes xx
