Porridge at 5.45am, pool side by 7am - last early session unless my coach decides otherwise.
Following the deluge of comments yesterday provoked by my comment that I would not be doing another Ironman in 2011, 2 comments actually but that is a record, I thought it work an explanation. My experience of setting goals is that if you have nothing lined up afterwards then you enter a vacuum. I have witnessed numerous triathletes this year reach there goal and are then lost. Nothing to aim for, no direction in their training and they become bored. My focus is 100% Ironman Copenhagen but once I have finished I plan to take a rest to recover then start light training but with a specific goal. 2011 will involve numerous Olympic Distance (1 mile swim, 40km bike & 10km run) tri's and some Sprint Tri's where I will be working on my technique. My objective is to learn to swim & cycle better before I consider going back to Ironman at a later date. So don't worry, the endurance knitting event can wait!
