Well not so much gold, more completion in a reasonable time.<\/p>\n
In a fit of stupidity I have agreed to do a Triathlon – not the full Olympic distance and certainly not Iron Man but either way its a 400m swim, 20K bike ride and a 5K run. The event I’m looking to enter is in September which leaves me with a 3 month training window.<\/p>\n
Main problems in the way at the moment are<\/p>\n
I’m going to have to train every day from now till then and I want to be able to do each individual bit comfortably before I move on to “joining the dots”. Using the excellent gmap-pedometer<\/a> I have mapped out some training routes, a 5K around the leisure centre (http:\/\/www.gmap-pedometer.com\/?r=1039305<\/a>) and a 22K bike ride (http:\/\/www.gmap-pedometer.com\/?r=1050349<\/a>).<\/p>\n Anyone who fancies joining me in this madness should add a comment committing to the cause and anyone who wants to encourage (or mock) should feel free. Wish me luck!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Well not so much gold, more completion in a reasonable time.
