7 Sundays

That's all I've got left and I'm on holiday for two of them. All getting a bit close and to be honest I'm a bit worried. Not that the training isn't going well. I ran for 15 mins this morning again. So I'll get half way round the run!! But I haven't done any multi-event training. I haven't leapt glistening with water, trickles running over my manly pecs, from the pool and onto my bike. I haven't struggled off the bike (and it is a struggle, can't get the leg over the saddle without getting cramp - is that a bad sign do you think?) and set off running down the road. In fact when I get off the bike my legs are like jelly and it's all I can do to straighten them to get rid of the cramp (from getting off the bike)!

And.... My wife noticed this morning (don't ask how) big bruises all over my poor posterior! I can only assume from the bike seat (I had a book down my pants in the Board meeting this week, so it can't be that). So I need more padding. This weekend, Sports Direct, £9.99, has to be done. I'll let you know how I get on!!
