EPiC Camp



Well next week I was supposed to be travelling to Seychelles to launch the Seychelles Triathlon Federation, however due to delay in the launch I have found myself with a week off work.  So I have arranged to do a solid week of training, otherwise known as an EPiC week.  A week of training that trains the body and the brain to make it through, doing more than a normal weeks training.  To help me get through this I have invited some fellow Triathletes  to accompany me on some of the sessions.  Some can make it some can't, the likes of Rob Lines who is in his Taper weeks to Ironman Oz    http://www.roblines.blogspot.com/   check out his build up 2 weeks to go.

Drop me an email to say if you would like to jon me on some of the sessions  ironmansimon@yahoo.co.uk

Wymondham 20 miler


Well it was a good start to the 20mile run today, 10 mile at 65min, but then at 15 miles my niggle from the begining of the week came and haunted me.  Left outside calf really sharp and sore, could not run for too long so was resorted to walk/run/walk/run and so on.  Will now have to recover and not run for the rest of the week will have chance to swim and bike but will have to see and get leg sorted, need to keep moving and will try and sort runnig out by next week.
