With a week to go my tapering starts i.e. reducing the amount and intensity of the training. So today I spent an hour on hill climbs outside my house followed by the smallest of runs to get used to the feeling of running off the bike. My legs felt very fresh but my bike gears need attention which will be sorted tomorrow.
Then it was Gala day in town so a real family occasion as the parade comes through the town so a few beers were had. Bumped into a friend who three years ago had promised to enter my first triathlon with me but he didn't follow through. Today he renewed his vow and after I finish this blog I am off to find him a novice triathlon that he can enter before the end of the year - another convert and success story I hope!
