TOUGH WEEK BACK AT HOME

Hi

Having returned home earlier this week I have found it tough to settle back into my routine. Feeling a little off the beat and slowly adjusting to the London weather has meant its been a mental battle this week.

A few pool swims and a couple of long rides have to by the main sessions in the past week. Although with out Prologue cycles my ride today would have been cut badly short. While out rding this morning I managed to jam my chain and bend my rear-mech and chain but a quick F1 type pit stop at Prologues shop in East Sheen and I was back on the road.... thank guys top effort on a Sunday.

For the coming week, its a big one. Next weekend the Artemis Great Kindrochit Quardrathlon starting at Loch Tay in the Scottish Highlands. Last year we finished second but this year the focus is on a long couple of days finish with the quad. Basically on Friday I will knock out a 54km run followed by a 160km bike ride and a 2-3hr night swim before starting the quad which is a 1 mile swim, 15 mile walk/run over 7 munros then back to the loch a kayak 7 mile and finish with a 54km cycle. Member of the Arch to Arc support team will be with me for the weekends activities so this will be our 1st outing together.

I will post more details of the Quarathlon later this week.

Off to sleep long now, go to get out ridding again tomorrow before work.

Cheers
Nino
