4 Weeks Catch up

Yes Yes im playing catch up on this blog!!! Well this is my plan and some of you will say im nuts, others will disown me(please dont) and some of you might just give me a high 5!! 4 weeks ago i started a 20 week training program for half ironman, and so far its going well! once i have finished this program i will be taking a short rest then start a full ironman program that will take me up to Ironman 70.3 The idea is to be superfit and own it! I did the Powerade Easter Cycle Challenge 2 sundays back and completed the 60km course in 2h10min! a fine effort if i do say so myself. Since the prelude i have invested in a racing bike, my "Snake". She is an Axis AR50 with carbon fibre forks and an alloy frame and so i have discovered on the longer rides, a bloody uncomfortable saddle which will be getting replaced this coming month. So a short summary of where i was to where i am: Running: Start - couldnt run 2.5km without thinking i was going to die. Now - Running 60min at about 6min/km no stress!!! Swimming: Start - hahaha 10 laps of the 25m pool was death Now - between 1.5km to 2.5km per session Riding: Start - my start was literally 5km Now - doing 60km races! and not coming last So all said and done, ive gone from 120kg to 107kg since i started my journey!
