I do not want it too hot during the day, but would prefer it if it is a bit warmer overnight. Also that might make the OW a bit warmer.

Yeah wild boar does seem a better idea.
Note to self remember to look up how far Nottingham is and the route needed. Last year I did my usual trick as a passenger and fell asleep after the M25 section  and only woke up for the services and again when off the motorway.

Chili, I reckon your speed will soon increase with that sort of training.

So glad of a rest day today.

I have looked at the weather forecast for end of the month, does not look like a heatwave is going to arrive, more of the same type of weather, even my brother out in northern Canada has got similar, but at least he gets a proper hot summer in July and August. I think I will get out my thermals for the camping.

What a good offer Blisters.

DB, I went to Thorpe at the weekend, only the 400m loop open as it was so cold (12degrees). the water was clear though.

Busy on this thread this weekend I see. Visit to FiL yesterday so no training, crammed it all into today.

Catching up the comments are
2XU tri shorts, wore some Altura bike shorts today, not good at all. Race will be in the 2XU's.

Well done Cat, I can imagine you tweeting on a run, good award.

MC, I was brave and OW swum this morning, the lake was 12degrees so did 3 x 400m loops.

I did my practice nutrition bike ride, 30 miles in 2 and a half hours, all went OK apart from the shorts.

Finished off with a total of 6 miles walked, looking at bluebells.

My feet ache, feel very tired, dinner is in oven, so early night is on the cards.

Razor, I only did 2x400m laps for my first OW swim this year.

Chilibean, chill out and take it easy.

ST, good start, don't overdo it, I remember you being very enthusiastic before.
