Re-run of last year's thread for anybody doing any 2012 iron distance race
mmMMMmmmmm..... Sunshine
Got my 11 mile run in this morning posting a very consistent pace of between 7min 30 and 8min per mile, avg 7min 45 which I am satisfied with for my long run without pushing too hard (fair play to GB and others who can knock out 6 min miles though).
In my rush to get out the door to get my run in I forgot my wallet and will be relying upon the kindness of others to feed myself today, so the planned lunchtime swim is probably off. I really need to get the swimming back on track ASAP.

Very scared as have never done a Sportive before or a ride more than 60 miles for that matter. Will you have pirate kit on? I would like to hook up with some friendly faces.

Yes will have pirate kit on, we aim to be away in the first few groups, but we will be keeping an easy pace most of the way round, you are move than welcome to hook up on our little group, make a change from Mrs SA sucking my back wheel for the entire 80 miles!

Spring is apparently planned for this weekend
I was just wondering (ie fretting cos I've had a few bad rides the last few weekends), what are people up to for long rides at the moment please, timewise? I know it's wrong to compare really but would just like to get a bit of a feel.
Thank you please
