I know you’ve spoke highly of it before. Fingers crossed you get to the start line
While a lot of you were suffering a triathlon in the heat, I was running a HM. 3rd year at this event, 1:23, 1:22, and today a high 1:24. I haven’t worked out where I lost the time yet. It was really hot which helped me to record 2nd highest max HR for 60 min. I was probably not as prepared for this event as the previous 2 years so probably a fair time. Oh and 3 weeks of high training time - TrainingPeaks kept nagging me to rest.
Enjoyed a swim in the river afterwards
In for the North Coast 110km, Oct 7th
Good lad!
Your turn
I’m getting pressure from many sides at the mo!
Is this the event you entered last year with the absolutely brutal weather? I recognise the name somehow.
Yeah that’s the one. I’m not great at smart decisions
It’ll be great. You know what to expect now
I kind of know. I did the 56km version 2yrs ago, so I know from Coombe Martin to Minehead (finish) and I know from the start to Ilfracombe but because I dropped last year, I don’t know the bit between Ilfracombe and Coombe Martin. (approx 11km).
As luck would have it, we are on holiday in Putsborough in Aug, which is on the course, so I can run from there to Coombe Martin and ‘maybe’ back.
Sounds all very positive FP. You have enough time to heal some injuries, prepare for 110km and recce some of the course.
The Outlaw on Sunday, is it just me.and @Toyota_Crown doing it?
I think there are 1498 other people doing it, too
Good luck
Smash it @pacha my boy.
#yougotthis
I think I might get on the TT podium this time
Be funny if it was just me and TC. The people at the swim exit will be wondering if we got lost or something
Yeah, good luck
Think @Toyota_Crown is finishing his Deca Friday, cycling home for a nap, then cycling over to HPP.
So he’s already won in my book
haven’t you heard FGS! I was first out of the sw1m at the DecaUK event* on Monday night. I am now officially a Swimming G0d
*disclaimer: I was ‘only’ doing the Double IM
