Training

It's Sunday evening at the end of a great weekend.  We're three weeks back from a trip to Europe for work and relaxation which was a real treat. If you've never been to Budapest and the opportunity arises, don't miss it. We enjoyed the travel, got to see Jade and Bala and came home feeling refreshed (jet-lag aside)

My IM training has been less than perfect. I've been back into it for the last two weeks, but travel is not conducive to IM training. In September I'm off again to England (London and Preston - up near Manchester) then to Switzerland (Zurich) then back home for a week and off to Canada (Vancouver) and the USA (Florida). I won't be taking my bike so I'm hoping for reasonably good gyms in the hotels and 50 meter pools (unlikely).  That aside I'm back into the swimming and riding having been out early most mornings for a ride and squeezing in a swim most days.  The running is still slow until I get to see the specialists about taping up the knee which feels fine, but I'm reluctant to push it.

So there's now only 15 weeks to the IM in Busso.  It's going to be full-on with work being super busy and Gene and the family being ever supportive. Every spare moment until the 4th December when the big event takes place seems to have been booked.  The count-down begins.
