Today is a day off from training and I took full advantage by playing golf last night, my first Medal of the year, and sleeping in till 6.45am this morning! Golf and triathlons have several things in common; nae dress sense (diamond jumpers!) and some serious money spent on "gear" that is supposed to make you better. The pace of the game was pedestrian at best but it was nice to be able to talk without choosing your moment between gulps of water or air.
I also have accepted my first social occasion after Ironman which will involve a few alcoholic drinks. My poor long suffering wife has offered to drive so she will probably continue suffering as I talk utter drivel all the way home after 2 shandies. But today has given me a glimpse of life and with any luck some form of normality will prevail after 15 August. I can hear you asking, but what next. That will depend on the outcome of Copenhagen but for the next 12 months I can promise you, it won't be another Ironman!
