I did theSummer version of the gutbuster....it was very muddy in July. I marghalled on the winter one last year - its VERY muddy! But fun.....sort of.

No PB today M..eldy, that was last weekend! Had a heavy running week, so was using today more as a pacing exercise - hit just above marathon pace.

Interesting Spoons. Not heard about that before & Simons a fellow TriAnglian, he organised our club relay teams this year.

He also runs Paradise Tri http://www.paradise-tri-training.co.uk/about.htm

Day after my birthday but a week before IMUK so doubt i'll be doing it.

Finished Chester Marathon yesterday....... 3:40:27 wooohoooooo beat my A goal of 3:45

Lesson learn't though going through half in 1:44 was too quick. Now onto B'ham half and Bosworth Duathalon

Spoons not heard of that one ever might be tempted if the race is on in 2014 got a lot of family clan memebers round that way.

Nice one TB.

45 mins on the turbo at lunch. In the hurtbox.

Excellent run TB

Well done TB, cracking time.

Re the lesson, you can`t put time in the bank in the first half of a marathon, always comes back to get you. For every minute you go through half way too fast, you lose 2-3mins in the second half.

I can only dream of being so speedy! Rest for me, too - mara in 4:16, which was a 2 min PB - yay!

brit - well done

erm, have put a different wheel with a turbo tyre on my bike, not convinced of my abilities to do this and am worried I will come a cropper in the morning

the odd thing is that when I try to put the brake 'release thing' back down, then the brakes are too tight and the wheel doesn't move. Now, this doesn't matter for the turbo, I can leave it open as don't need the brakes, but wondering whether it indicates I haven't put the wheel on right?

Different thickness of wheel?

08/10/2012 at 20:24

I thought they were the same but I guess they could be different. Oh well, so long as I don't hurt myself. It isn't like I am going to use this wheel on the road
