another late entry. open water sprint, closed road bike, run around some bits of capability brown garden furniture.

bowood house tri

off in the 13.30 wave. should be a laugh if i get my legs back after sunday's 100mi +15mi nonsense. currently they are hiding.

That looks pretty good luck

Excellent!

rumour has arrived at my ears that the lake might be warm enough for wetsuits to be optional.

there is a long run up a grass hill to t1.

i am pretty much the same speed in a wetsuit as in a pool (23:05 for 1500 at cardiff, 23:50 in pool about a month before - not at race pace). over 750m this would be even less.

hmm... my instinct is to ditch the suit - if i get chilly the run into t1 will soon warm me up.

Make sure you tell gingertri.

glorious weather since my last tri, when it pissed it down.

forecast for tomorrow is now - pissing it down. ffs. three races, three soakings.

At least you are experienced at it

Good luck.

If it's any conciliation, running in the midday heat of Geneva totally ruined me on Friday. Good luck!

Rain holding off which is bloody marvellous. Touch windy, but I'll be ok with that I think.

Rain came back. Finished in 1:23 or something. Was second out of the water but lost the bike on the third corner (7 lap bike so saw it a few times) so was quite twitchy for the rest. Had a good go on the run. Need to get cleaned up and check the bike.
