Hey Everyone

I know its real soon since my last post but I thought I would tell you how the triathlon went yesterday.

I did a 750 meter swim followed by a 18 km bike ride and a 5 km run.  I found doing all three together really hard, but managed to beat my personal best on every part! I knocked 30 secs off my swim time down to 19 mins 40 secs, 1 minute off my bike time to 37.03 and 1 minute 20 off my fastest run time to 29.40 so I’m dead chuffed with myself  thought I was not going to be able to finish the run part and ended up doing a sub 30 minute time, which I have been trying to achieve in the gym for ages – just goes to show how performing in front of other people can really get you to go that little bit extra hard.

I’m really tired today – especially as I have been out shopping hard for most of today but I’m really glad I did it.  Not sure what I’m going to do next, perhaps I will try a longer triathlon in the future.  But for now I think I’ll just rest – muscles are feeling a little tender

So for all of you who are thinking that you can’t do a triathlon think again – try to tell yourself ‘I CAN’ instead of ‘I CAN’T', put in some training, no matter what size, weight or fitness level you are, give it a go, the sense of achievement and health you get out is well worth the effort you put in.

Till next time . . .
