thanks - getting a lot more than the Model Bs now though
Top report - training for Spring marathons and IMs is a brutal game, cos you dont get any acclimatising time. Verl well done. Swim is coming on well too.
Swashbuckler swim was wayyyy harder (but that was just this year apparantly). The bike ride was harder than I thought, but no-where near as nice as the Sept one, this ride was on teh outskirts of teh Forest on lots of busy roads, The Sept course is beautiful. The Swash run is a lot easier and more or less flat.
The field is stronger than the MD and thes results this year were biased towards teh strong swimmers, most folks took about 50 % too long in th water going on those that did last year and this year.
The Sept swim in a lake thats in waves starts will be a doddle from now on.
