A week out from Bolton IM 70.3 ππ»ββοΈ π΄π»ββοΈπββοΈ
Iβve finally learned how to change an inner tube. I didnβt have fun doing it, although the wine helped π a couple of open water swims plus some easy training at the end of the week after twinging my back a few days ago π
a gorgeous sauna + cold plunge session and quite a few stress outs. But Iβm ready. I hope!

Another week closer to Bolton IM 70.3 & another week of training done. Didnβt quite get in all the sessions I had planned next week but listened to my body when I needed to as I donβt want anything ruining these last few weeks of prep & my race. A big week this week: letβs go!! ππ»ββοΈ π΄π»ββοΈπββοΈππΌββοΈ

Southport Standard Tri ππ»ββοΈ π΄π»ββοΈπββοΈ
Warm up race ahead of Bolton 70.3 in 3 weeks, my first standard distance & my first open water race!
The swim was not enjoyable, at all π
I ended up swimming the entire thing breast stroke or polo. The bike was good, had a headwind in one direction but the other way was fab! And I got a 40k PB πͺπ» and the run was good too. Not quite as quick as Iβd have liked but for a first run out, a swim that I hated it every second of and essentially a race that I was using as training, Iβm happy with it!
Next up: Bolton IM 70.3
Swim - 41:04
Bike - 1:39:22
