starting over….
IM Lanzarote was a tough event….stunning and beautiful but pretty brutal. I loved it and will go back to do it again someday. For now I have to concentrate my efforts on competing in Kona at the Ford IM World Championships in October.I am beginning to start turning the legs again,but with no intensity. Last week I tried to train to HR and intensity and ended up frustrated and spitting my dummy out! So after a great chat to coach Will,who understood my frustrations, we decided that I would do a week of “because you can”training.I am happy as the sun is shining this week and I know I can go and swim,bike,run without thinking of how much and how hard. Yesterday Jimmy and I went to Eastbourne to sea swim - it was brilliant. Calm,clean and not too deep! I have an irrational fear of what lives in the sea and found myself looking for fins!So I am on my way to Kona, for the biggest challenge so far of my athletic career. I am excited, honoured and motivated to have the best day I possibly can. I want to chart my progress this time as the tough winter training I had to do for Lanzarote seems a very distant memory now…
