Friday 25/02/22

Number Nine

‍

Swim - 27.33

Bike - 1.23.28

Run - 55.22

‍

2 Months Done / 17% Challenge Done / over £17,000 raised for charity already. A long long way to go still, but I think it’s an incredible start to the challenge.

Todays Tri, number 9/52 was to the backdrop of the shocking news in Ukraine. I spent the entire bike leg watching the news as I turned my legs; I can’t remember the last time I watched the news for almost 90 minutes without a break. But it was too hard to turn off though as it felt like I owed it to the incredible people of Ukraine to keep watching. They are really astonishing people. What they must be going through and yet they stand firm and hold their dignity. Bullies never win, never. Putin can’t win. He may kill many people and destroy so much and it might go on for a long time. But he can’t win. They NEVER do.

Next Triathlon will be overseas as I’m heading to South Africa for work for a week. I’m not yet sure exactly how I’m going to get it done, but I will of course and I suspect it will be slightly warmer for me, which will be nice, I just need to make sure I’m safe as it’s not exactly the safest place to go for a ride and a run🙄

Big shout out to everyone who has so far sponsored me, please try to help and see if we can get to the magic £20,000 landmark in March.
