This year is on track to be the second highest bike and total hours behind 2020 (lots of lockdown zwift miles) and second highest run year behind 2015 (2:41 marathon) which suggests things are falling into place. Weight remains steady at 80Kg which I delighted with after losing 2 stone in Q1.
So far this year I have laid down a solid base for bike/run and I think I am starting to identify as a triathlete. “I am a triathlete.”

I realised I must like doing phys quite a bit when I was one of the only people waking up at 0500, no, 0400, sometimes earlier, to run to the pool (4km) and run back (4km) before work. Or to run or ride to the base shop (6km), the local town (20km), spend a few nights in a hotel (30km). I saved a fortune on taxis and buses! And nights out! This is the first time I have really considered that I ‘own’ an identity or identify as something (swim/bike/run). I might even put that in my signature block.

Ideally, I’ll do some more Megan Training (It’s all about the base, no Tempo ;-0)! Just heard a good podcast suggestion to do 1 min on/off for 12 min up to 25 min on/off by Feb. I have a good base and will be capable of riding 6hrs plus in Nov. In 2013 I worried about making the distances, this time I want to get as fast as I can.

Just tried weighing myself… knowing I needed to subtract 2.4kg for clothes and boots… I watched the scale go from 82kg to 81kg and got very excited until it shot up to 85kg… I guess the ship is moving more than I thought!

Had a great time in Guam, nice to ride some long(ish) climbs again - 18min. Got my bike serviced by an Olympian mountain biker, ran lots, improved my swimming and bought an Oculus for Christmas at a good price: oculus.com

I have enjoyed reading this wiki fetcheveryone.com/article-view.php?id=328
