Hopefully if things go to plan I will moving back to the home of Enduroman near Weymouth in March next year. With only 7 weeks to go before the Lanzarote Ultra, it is now time to start increasing the training load in preparation for the event. My swim endurance is still in the bag from the channel last year, and I have a 6hr lake swim and a 4hr pool swim to boot from this year too.
Claire and I plan to get runs of 6 and 8hrs in before hand and also do a 12hr night run along the South West Coastal path to condition for racing without sleep. Mixed that in with a 5 and 6 hour pool swim and the normal Ironman bike training and we will be ready to rock and roll on December 13th! Now that winter looks like it's finally here, the good old faithful Fausto Coppi has been resurrected for those grim early morning bikes to work.
The latest news from Enduroman is that we plan to launch our clothing range in the near future, featuring, fleeces, cycle tops, trisuits plus other Gucci kit!
