Ahh, the classic kit laid out piccy. I had already taped an energy gel to the handlebar of my bike so I could refuel on the road. Since then, I had enjoyed – and hated – many long, short, hilly, flat, windy, sunny cycles.

yes my astonishing, adventurous, inspirational (and HOT) lady wife Nicky made her triathlon debut on Sunday.

But I am alive. The more people I passed, the more confidence I built, the quicker – it felt –  I got and ultimately the more enjoyable it became. I ran in, hung the bike, swapped shoes and I was out the gap and ready to show off my running skills.The first few hundred meters are tough off the bike. ROUTE. I promise you, that if you start on this journey, the hardest thing that you will do is stop.Fill in your details below or click an icon to log in:A Scare in Senggigi.

The second half of the stripping was not as graceful.

So fast through transition the pictures are just a blur. This very thought was exemplified when I was offered a drink by a fellow rider after he saw me clumsily dropping my bottle a few kilometers back.Transition 2 was much better. The nerves were for exactly that, what if I couldn’t complete it? Even in the adventure races I took part in, the cycle seemed spacious and lonely. The adventure race was thrilling, painful, challenging, – fecking freezing -, rewarding….

I went from feeling like an Olympic athlete to feeling like a gobshite who’s trying to peel skinny jeans off after having 40 pints. 19 juil. I got psyched out of it by – at the time what seemed like – a viciously dangerous seal. After going for around 100 meters – although it felt like 4 miles – without stopping, I thought I would reward myself with some breaststroke and some normal breathing for a bit. From some of the preparation that got me here to the many ups and downs of race-day for a triathlon debutant.To paint the picture, the challenge for me was TriAthy’s Sprint Triathlon:Reflecting on my training over the past 6 months or so, I can clearly see the value of competence when it comes to being motivated.

Another sickening feeling comes now as I seem to be swimming on my own with nobody around me. The sea was calmer, the setting sun was still hot and there were about 40 fellow participants of all different shapes, sizes and ages. I was a weird kind of nervous. Becoming a Triathlete. August 3, 2016 They have come from all walks of life and overcome amazing hurdles to reach the top of their sport and today the official announcement of our Australian team. But I tried my best to block that thought and I took a lot of comfort in the number of lifeguards that lined the river in kayaks. And when I did step out of the water, I felt like the world was circling faster than a spinning top and I was standing upside down.Out of desperation I went back again a week later. Triathlons for me, are just how amateur sport should be. I discarded my – usually precious – wetsuit in a heap on the ground.

I drank a good litre of salty sea water. A 250 meter sounded so appealing compared to the 750 meter that I had summoned myself to. This is my first ever time swimming downstream in a river, and do you know what? November 2017. I’d be lying to you if I said that that fear was not there.Arriving in Athy around 2 hours before the race was due to begin, we headed straight for the transition area. We were pulling away from each other, tiring, catching and passing each other, and all the while, speeding towards the 20k mark and back to the transition zone.
