Well, the rugby dilemma is solved - he's gone already.

Now, do I put him in the freezer until Monday, or just in Sam's office? Will he start to smell that quickly? It's quite warm here during the day.

PDP.

I have rugbied. All but about 10 minutes of the second half.
Our opposition were much bigger (their one prop must have weighed in about the same as our entire front row combined) and more experienced (two ex Dutch national team players who are retired from top level rugby and now just play for shiggles), but at least in the first half we held them off surprisingly well.

One of their flankers really took a shine to my neck, and she was hella lucky, to my mind, not to get carded for it. Only one of her high tackles was genuinely unpleasant, but it's the principle of the thing.

I have SUPathloned. Because 2 sports are not enough, I threw in a brief swim in the middle 🤣 much fun. And then cycled round the old golf course with Dog to find out that his bicycle aversion is possibly due to scary humans moving quickly rather than the bicycle itself cos we had a lovely time zooming about, when it's me on the bike.

I have Bolton 70.3’d. Swim and run solid but underpowered to be a factor at the pointy end of my AG on the bike.

5:17 - 33/2:55/1:38.

Bike rough roads lots of sharp ascents/descents - not my kind of riding at all.

Overall 92nd but only 10th M50-54, which was super stacked today. I would have been higher in either M40 or M45. Gave it my best, so all good. A nice reality check on what is required to really get amongst it in IM racing.

Time for pizza, donuts and downtime😀😀😀

TRO - well done. Enjoy!

As I am doing IMUK next year I'll be really keen to hear more about the bike at some point (type of bike, technique for balancing power/effort, specificity in training) or anything else you can offer.
