It’s not happening though, is it?
I’ll be shocked if it goes ahead on the original date.
All the comms from Lakeman are “it’s on”.
Theres caaveats around loads of things from no supporters at the finish, staggered starts and pick your swim distance.
But no suggestion its being postponed

It’s on!
My mate told me, the same one who knew about the bike course change last year.
IMJ is full of poor souls doing 2:20 loops shutting themselves as they can’t swim, the guy I train with got 5 th on the strava loop board with no effort… he says…or some other type of make up not real nonsense.
Get after it !

NOOOOO!!!
3 loops of that is eight hours for them, then!
As if they can only do one in that time, they’re gonna go downhill massively.
Plus there’s the bloody awful bit from Leigh Sports Village up to the actual loop

Your a flyer, I know of people who were hoping to learn to swim this winter who have to suck it up or loose half a grand as they can’t defer.
Average times could be even slower than 2019… and they were slow !

Today is slightly better than yesterday work wise but I’m in such a funk that I think I’ll just go for a walk later.

Yeah, I read that the deferral was used from 2020 to 2021. A bit shocking that.
My best loop was 2 hours 
Need to get back up there and get three of ‘em done
Graham “ wattmaster” Gore just knocked out a 1:47? I think, busy traffic too.

Good 40 TSS for an hour is not worth getting off the sofa for, well done!

went for a 3km walk in the sun (bloody cold wind though) and did something I very rarely do, put the earphones in and listened to some music. Part of me wished I was running and part of me didn’t.

Not really - I just like being outside when it’s like this. For fun. Not exercise.
Mind you, I still had fun anyhow - but sometimes, when something a bit harder is prescribed, it’s not fun.
If you get me?
I was gonna do some yoga and S&C, but Mrs GB is out on her bike tonight and i’m off tomorrow. So I’ve got the Volta highlights on, a beer in hand and I’ve had a massive craving for ice cream lately. So I grabbed a tub of Haagen Dazs whilst popping out to grab some milk.
Dreamy.

90mins sweet spot intervals then 20min easy run on the treadmill should’ve been an hour.
Did not enjoy this. I was tired and not up for it. Fuck everything.

7km steady run on the treadmill this morning, a lot harder than it should have been.
Managed a 2k walk at lunch too.
