Back into it.....

Today I hit the road nice and early, meeting up with the Kinetic edge bike group. It is an awesome group to ride with, they are all amazingggggggggggggggg cyclists....and they just kill me!! i think by riding with them, I get into shape and back into some kind of fitness alot faster..with less effort!! I like it, well I can say that now sitting on the sofe...but not when we are killing it in the Waitaks!!! why do they have to attack like that??? anyway..all good and loads of fun

Getting back into the swing of things....

Well It has been 21/2 weeks since Ironman New Zealand....I can really hardly believe it has come and gone. The time after the race seems to go fast but the time leading up to the event goes super fast. Why does that happen? gets me.......

I thought I had better get back into some sporty stuff, as the shopping, eating out and drinking can only last so long. I have had a great recovery, which off course was made easier with my MVP boots, and having Pua massaging me almost everyday......No niggles! always handy.......

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW....

IT IS DONE..I am so happy that Ironman NZ is done. But wow what a weekend. It was an incredible day, not just for me, but for all the finishers. It was a tough day as the wind on the bike AND THE RUN were trying.

I just wanted to say WELL DONE, CONGRATULATIONS AND COOLNESS to everyone.

AND THE VOLUNTEERS IN TAUPO....WERE INCREDIBLE, you really made my day flow like a well tuned engine.

Ding dong....doorbell

Ding dong went the door bell late last night.......looking forward to my first big sleep in...and thank goodness for that, as I was greeted late last night by Drug Free sport!

Ugh, I had only justtttttttttttttt showered and done all my routing bathroom duties when my little friends came to visit. I knew they were probably going to be stopping by soon, as last year they came one night earlier!!

So after drinking aloooooooooooooooot of water, I finally gave my bottle of 120ml urine......I did off course have to do a partial as really I was all ready for bed!

Taper timeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Well it is finally here, I really can't believe Ironman NZ is only a week away.

BUT, CONGRATS TO MY GREAT FRIEND BELINDA GRANGER!!! she nailed a win at Ironman Malaysia.....well done well done well done.......

So, this is the time to chill, put your feet up and enjoy your time. The training has all been done, and if not, it is better to be under done than over cooked!!! Ironman is a longgggggggggggggg day. This week, make sure you get good food, good rest and get organised.
