Climbing is so last year.


I knew that, when I moved to Cornwall to start my masters, my climbing would take a hit.

Poor public transport links in Cornwall combined with a lack of time and a lack of knowledge of the area was never going to add up to an easy maintenance of my strength and fitness.

Still, I hoped that what I lacked in climbing I would make up for in Surfing.

I just didn't bank on months of cold and drizzle.

Not to mention my epic workload.

So. My thoughts again turned to the triathlon.

I bought a bike in September - my first road bike.


I have ridden it once.

It is filling up the shed nicely though.

So that has left me with running.

The Falmouth Half Marathon is on the 18th March.

I'll be running it having trained moderately over the last few weeks.

I'm hoping that I'll run it in 1 hour 45 mins.

But really, I want to beat my brother's half marathon time.

He won't tell it to me until I complete mine, but it was faster than 1' 45".

Must train harder.
