Olympic fun

Just a quick update as i'm currently on holiday, sat in Hotshots bar at Butlins in Bognor Regis. Awaiting the start of the mens Olympic Triathlon where i'm oping to witness a Brownlee Brothers Gold & Silver.

Had a fantastic day on Sunday at the Olympic village, what an experience. Watched a couple of basketball games, USA v China & Austrailia then mens Hockey. GB v Austrailia. Never watched a Hockey game before but wow, exciting stuff. GB 3-0 down to come back and tie. Great atmosphere, you'd have thought you were at a world cup final.

I'll post some pics up once i get home next week.

Training

Monday - 2 mile bike
Tuesday - 91 min run & 1 hr bike
Wednesday - 1 hr open water swim. Managed a new PB of  around 1600m non stop front crawl. Took 46 mins as well so on target for next weeks half Ironman. 45 min bike ride done as well.
Thursday - 1 hr 50 min bike
Friday - 2 mile bike
Saturday - 2hr 30min bike

Doubt much training will ge done this week. I have brought my running gear & wet suit to Bognor though so hopefully find some motivation to do something.




For anyone still seeking inspiration to get fit, even if you dont fancy an Ironman event (yet), have a read of Andy Holgates book. Link to the books FB page below.
