Epping Forest Epic

Last Saturday I did a 15 km run in Epping Forest with a friend I hadn't seen in a while; thanks for the guided tour Simon! It was my first time there and I was pretty impressed - a Hampstead Heath of the East. As for the run, a steady pace and about 1 hour 15 mins overall. Reminds me, I should start to think about target times...

And I'd better get some more swimming in too...

17 weeks to go

Just did a quick count of how long until the triathlon and it's a disturbingly close 17 weeks. My training has been sporadic at best ...until now! I've been doing regular runs round Victoria Park and 40 km on the bike shouldn't be too bad (fatal last words), but what's really scaring me is the swim. I've been doing a swim or two a week at York Hall, but swimming along with 300 other people in Royal Albert Dock is going to be a completely different kettle of fish...or sewage as the case may be. Wish me luck!
