Northern Crossing Done

Well, I said in a previous post I'd be training 5 times a week to get there. That didn't happen nearly was many weeks as I would have liked it to.

But, I got there, It was slower than I wanted, partly because I wasn't as fit as I wanted, and partly due to the conditions. We are looking at strong headwinds, and heavy rain for the duration. It took over 7 hours. But I completed my first multi sport event!

One job done.

Goal 1, The Northern Crossing

It Begins

As a part of my get fit program I started last year, I'm setting myself new challenges, the first is the northern crossing on May 15. That is 9 weeks and 6 days from today. So I have a lot of work ahead of me.

I'll be entering the Duathalon, so I'll be doing 2x 8km runs, and over 80km cycling.

To get there, I'll be training 5 times a week. At least that's the plan.

The blog is to record my progress training, dieting etc. and by publishing what I'm planning like this, it makes it harder to back out!
