PDP.
Back in clogland again after some fun, and not so fun, times in Brx.
Still no lanyard news.
Best of British, or other nationality of your choice, to competitors this weekend. May the weather be the least possible amount of uncomfortable and the wind always at your backs!
As the damn office cricket thing clashes with the 043 oly I've decided to do a mock one on my own tomorrow, with Sam playing the part of glorified bike rack at the side of the lake for T1.
As it's not a proper event I'm not feeling that nervous about it, but still slightly excited.
Also quite excited about the best bacon in the world for a nice sausage, bacon and egg, butty when I'm done.

enjoy Rae
been to pool
splashed about in a jumping manner and can now report the ability to jump in and swim without being a stress bag potentially saving anything from 30 seconds (took me 35 to get in at the half) and 5 mins (as I stopped for a panic at the half)
BIG win

Winning indeed
I am now over the worst of a COLD !!!! With that and a house move training has not been a priority.
Hill climbing later :¬)

I can well imagine - starting well (or not) will really affect your mindset for the whole event.
I know the mad dash before the swim at lcw last year got me completely on the wrong foot.

It's just we don't jump in! I've only ever done deep water starts and pool swims
pool training is always in "lanes" when you can't jump in even if you want to!
much happier now
