Triathlon

I joined the triatholon club to complete the "Physical" part of my Gold Duke of Edinburgh Award . I have now completed that part of my award but I intend to stay as I really enjoy it. I have been to the swimming training for quite a while, but only been out cycling a few times. I'm still to go for the running as well.. ( I hear you suggest "Join a swimming club instead!"), but no. I've been told there are a few novice triathlons next year so hopefully I'll enter at least one and give it a shot. Should be fun. The club, Ayrodynamic, has a website here

20/02/06 I've bought speedos! I hate them but it might make me swim faster. I'm wanting to beat the time trial below. However I don't feel I'm swimming as fast as I was. We'll need to see. Perhaps I'll go swimming a few times between now and the time trial. Should I not do well, I'll blame the christmas break and all the chocolate I've eaten recently!

As an attempt to get me running, I've decided that I want to enter the Goatfell race this May. I might be slow going up, but running down, I can do
