In seven months or 212 days I will be, all being well, somewhere near Nottingham on my bike. I’ll be part way through 112 miles of bike ride having already swum 2.4 miles.
Currently the longest I’ve ever ridden my bike in one go is 52 miles and I’ve never swum more than an Oly swim and I’ve only done that twice. So although seven months seems a long time I’ve got a lot of work to do. If I’m honest I think I could go out tomorrow and ride 80 miles or so and I could probably manage 2K swimming wet suit assisted although perhaps not on the same day. (more…)
