It felt odd riding for just two hours on Saturday and running just an hour on Sunday. But that's what the training programme dictated. This is taper week. Monday was a rest day and I was in the pool first thing this morning, Tuesday 3rd Sept 2013. I swam 3km and felt good. I mixed it up as usual and even threw in 100 metres of butterfly just because I could.
At lunch time I went and had my neck and back worked on as it has been playing up and I have been in a lot of pain for the last few days.
Andy is brilliant with his hands and although I am sore from the massage, I know it will feel much better in a couple of days.
I went for a short run this evening and had a damn good stretch afterwards.
I have been watching You Tube clips from last years Ironman Wales and whilst it is inspiring me it is also scaring the hell out of me. I have taken on such a massive challenge and really don't want to fail! I will stick to my game plan and hope for the best.
