Putting things end-to-end  — 1 day ago

Today I swam 600 metres again, stopping for breath only at 300 metres, and that was not strictly necessary. I am starting to get comfortable with swimming; I think that ‘playing’ while swimming pool lengths is a good indication of this.

I need to start thinking about cycling on a real bicycle.

Swimmingly  — 1 week ago

Today I swam 600 metres in the pool. I did rest every 200 metres, but I’ll work on that. The main thing is that I swam the distance I will need to swim in the triathlon, and it’s becoming easier. I still have no open-water experience.

No superman  — 7 months ago

Just to make it clear that I’m no Ironman candidate, here’s a link to the kind of thing I’m interested in.

It will not be this year, though.
