A week on and I thought I would let you all know how I got on last week (sorry I know I should have posted earlier, but I've been super busy). Last weeks race when well all thinks considered, a late night before, Ironman China still in my legs etc. The swim was great, by far and a away the best swim I've done. I got the water in 3rd place overall behind Roy Nasr and one other athlete. The bike was hard going as I really found it difficult to push the big gears and therefore I struggled to get distance over Roy and in fact I feel he rode way better than me, both of us coming into T2 together, however he wasn't running and therefore I left transition and I moved into first place. I ran the run in a controlled manner just doing enough to come home 45 seconds over second place.
I was happy to get another win, two out of two sounds good and from that win I should be able get some more interest from sponsors etc. However, I'm not fully happy with my overall race as I struggled in parts I've never struggled ie the bike, but I'm not going to moan too much I've got to put it all in perspective and enjoy it.
This week we also when up the Burj Khalifa, the worlds tallest building....it was amazing, truly amazing. Right, I've got to keep the training going as in two weeks today I've third and final round of the championships, not long now.
Train safe as always,
Ed
