BRRRRRRRrrrrrrrr

How bloody cold is it???

As usual when the snow comes training stalls....my running was going so well and i was genuinely pleased with the progress i was making and was actually enjoying doing it...but the cold came and brought with it snow...which also meant ice the day after and running is pretty much out of the question........so guess what i did???

I Got the Turbo out!!!!

This time i've got it set up in my spare room, with a PC and a 32" screen for company...i'm going to do all the sufferfest video workouts and started with 'angels' (www.thesufferfest.com)which is an absolute killer!
I know that if i'm to succeed this time round i need to cycle for a lot longer and a lot further than i did last year...so i'm gonna build it up from now to make sure i'm further on than i was when i started last year.....oh the PAIN!!!

the only other thing that happened this month was the BCTTT annual 'awards' dinner. with awards like 'i'm not dead i'm just resting' given for showing incredible restraint on the swim by letting everyone else exit the water first, you can see what type of night it was.
I'd like to say is was memorable but i drank so much that i can hardly remember any of it. but i'm sure it was a cracking night and i hope i can win an award of some kind next year!! and if your interested pictures are here :
