August Update....7 Weeks to go!

So 7 weeks to go! Race Entry Paid Up..No Looking Back! I have officially got comfortable at running.....not fast, more like that long haul diesel truck that just wont stop!!! Swimming is getting well up there too, feel like a fish! Well im 22kgs lighter...that puts me at 98kgs!!! and gone from a 42" waist to a 36" waist! Needless to say i'm super stoked and look like one of those guys, "I lost 20kg with this diet" except i'm eating like a horse hahahahaha. i'm in BEAST MODE! Gear Updates: I now have my road converted tri-bike in full aero position...surprisingly comfortable. I have also started breaking in a new pair of running shoes, Asics Gel Noosa Tri8's, the most lumo pair of running shoes I could possibly find! Having said that, the New Balance will still be my choice of running shoe for TriRock as unbelievably, I have put nearly 400km on them! YES I HAVE ALMOST 400KM RECORDED!!!! ITS AMAZING!!!!!!!!! I'm using Hammer Perpetuem for training rides and will use it in the race....orange vanilla flavour, it's not delicious, but is strangely comforting, tastes malty and your first sip, if you have never tried it, is a special moment, and yet it goes down easily, no stomach issues on long runs or rides so im sold and the energy just keeps coming with it! Also playing with eating on rides now, bananas, hammer bars, gels. New piece of kit...my ICE ID..bright yellow and all my details, everyone should be wearing one!!! A top bar bag....i think thats what its called, but what a great investment for keeping food and phone etc!!! And My Pride and Joy......GARMIN FORERUNNER 910XT helps my training so much it just doesn't make coffee but bloody hell, it has a little virtual trainer i have named Jimmy who I race against hahahaha!!! I almost beat him!!!! Still doing 99% of my training alone, there is something to doing long sessions alone that gives you a sense of freedom! Anyway i'll catch up soon with some new updates
