Blog Update
It’s been 7 months since I last posted here and man those months have passed incredibly quickly. I’ve mainly been using that time to build my new website NewToTri.com which has been going really well. The website is set up for anyone who’s new to Triathlon and also those who are stepping up in Triathlon distance!
Athletically it’s been a pretty quiet year. Between an incredibly busy work period and a number of niggly injuries I’ve mainly been ticking over re: Training. From June – August I did a fair bit getting in some great spins in the Wicklow mountains and 21Km runs down by Dublin Bay. I also ran a 5 mile road race about 7 weeks ago and 3 weeks ago myself a friend took our bikes to Northern France and cycled around Normandy for a week which was EPIC. We’d a brilliant time and i’ll be following this post with details of the trip for anyone who might be interested in doing similar!
I was toying with the idea of running the Dublin Marathon again this year but instead I’ve decided to focus on two short term goals:
- Try to get a decent 10Km road race time this side of Xmass
- Try to get a solid Half Marathon time in Spring
I’ll still be swimming and cycling but with my current work demands my focus for now will be on speed. That way my workouts will be shorter (if not more intense).
Watch this space for more!
