Having taught myself to swim in early 2010 i completed Hatfield Sprit Tri in July and decided Triathlon was the sport for me. As an individual i've never been one to do things by half and find jumping in at the deep end (literally!!) is the way forward in life. So one Olympic triathlon later and i decided it was time to get stuck in. Enter Ironman Switzerland and all the trial and tribulations that go with attempting to become an Ironman. My winter training has already posed some problems mainly that of swimming more than 400metres without a wetsuit and the fact i developed Planter fasciitis in my right foot and haven't been able to run more than 6 miles for the last four months!
With Spring on its way and the season getting underway i thought id Blog some of thats going on and how life goes as a Trainee Ironman. 49days until my first Triathlon of the season which is Lisbon International Tri in Portugal but they'll be a few discipline specific races thrown in before i would imagine....i will no doubt keep you posted.
