Man down...

Well, I'd love to report that everything is back on track and training is going well.
It's Not.

The doctor finally diagnosed me with Flu, Sinusitis and an ear infection! Great.

My introduction to the world of Duathlon was cancelled, I just couldn't do it. I've not run/biked/swam for 3 or 4 weeks now and this is vital time. I even had to cancel my first session back with Gary.

But...I've not been idle (well not completely).

In the mean time I've managed to buy myself an OMM Ultra 15l running rucsac ready for Celtman. Claire has agreed to pay for a Video swim session or my birthday, today! whoo hoo! So that should be interesting and probably embarrassing as I'll be posting the vid up here no doubt. I've had my entry confirmed for the Emergency Services Tri. Held at Nottingham (Holme Pierrpont) in May, I've also entered the Eyam Half Marathon in May. It's a hilly race with good reputation and seeing as it's fairly local, and I've missed a lot recently, I figured why the hell not! I'm also playing with the idea of Newton Running shoes, fingers crossed I may have acquired myself a pair to try out...watch this space.

I hope that the next update to the blog will actually have some activity, some resemblance of training back on schedule and ready to take on Celtman....we will see.....
