One year on from watching Mark Cavendish take this crown. Under normal circumstances we would be seeing another cyclist picking up the prize tonight, Bradley Wiggins. However, considering the fantastic year British sport has seen the competition this year is second to non.
Although i think Bradley should pick up the main prize tonight, it will probably be a close run thing with Jess & Mo there, the more mainstream nominees.
Surprise announcement tonight from Andy Holgate. His new book has been released early on kindel version. For those who have been inspired by his first book, grab the sequel at Amazon.

No training done this weekend due to too much partying on Friday night. Definitely getting to old for it, still feel knackered today, shame because the weather has been it's best for a long time.
Training
Mon - 1 hour coached swim session.
Tues - 2.29 mile run
Weds - 1hr 9min swim - new pb, 1.5 miles, furthest Ive swam all front crawl
Coached sessions was well worth going to, will be including that in my weekly training. Having someone watch you then offering advice on small improvements was brilliant. Just by the way i cut my hands into the water has improved my stroke remarkably.
Great news for cycling fans. Le Tour de France 2014 will start in England & host 3 stages, I will certainly be at each stage.

Other than that, not a great deal to report then this week. Will try and up the exercise next week, weather permitting, no more parties till new year thank god. Then that's it till after Ironman UK next August
Happy Training
