Cycling Major Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 Yeah - I am not sure I want to do a full either. After reading through all the issues everyone is having, and the time it takes to train, I don't know if it is worth it for me. The 42km run scares me to no end. I will probably eat my words after June's 70.3, so lets see. I would love to do full, bucket list... But I think mentally you have to be ready. Are we seeing you in the cradle this weekend? Will probably not do the club ride but will ride straight from there. Still deciding...

I am sure your lovely wife will fill you in. Next weekend though.

shaper Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Also just finished my last long ride and big week, taper time
IceCreamMan Posted March 12, 2017 Author Posted March 12, 2017 Any Idea when they send out race numbers etc?Normally it's a month prior. Not sure why numbers not yet allocated but any day now I reckon.
IceCreamMan Posted March 12, 2017 Author Posted March 12, 2017 Also just finished my last long ride and big week, taper time Did Sarens 21 today an felt good. Not fast but good. Cycled 70 yesterday. From now 10 kay runs an shortish cycles but would like 1 more 5 hour ride. Maybe on the public holiday.
Simonpurdon Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Anyone have any experience with PE water temps and a wetsuit? More than likely going to rent one, even just for the buoyancy, just would like to know how much of a deep breath I'm going to need when running (walking) into the water!
Rocket-Boy Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Every thread on ironman reminds me of this, I never get tired of it!

Last year I think it was 16 degrees or so. It's not bad at all
