Peter: Two days off from the gym and things all go wrong!! Forgot to take my water bottle, worse still I did not put any shorts on so had to train in leggings – then forgot my belt for my jeans after showering and no towel! Last time I have anytime off !! – still felt good back on the bike funny your body is pretty good at telling you what to do ‘like rest’ bashed out very close to a PB on the bike so happy with that – onwards.

Peter: Things are starting to fall into place now .. I think? – my bike ride this morning felt really strong after a tough ride last night I suppose I must now try and push to the next level where ever that is? Still keep at it, as the days tick by – as I sit on this train …well who knows what tomorrow bring?

Peter: Running session today, just beat my own PB now a bike ride tonight and all will be well! – must get some swimming done or I might not even get to the bike stage on race day.

Peter: Solid start to the new week, after a big effort on the bike yesterday (64K) I was suprised at how good I felt, very few aches or pains ! Just a blip I’m sure probably struggling to walk tomorrow, still that’s tomorrow – today is good let’s keep thinking that – UP AND AT’EM

Well who would have believed that after consuming two..yes two fat boy burgers in one day,  I could get on the treadmill and bash out my best distance in the time available .. new high protein diet – pleased with that and myself – have too admit everytime I meet up with my two brothers (last night) I come away feeling ‘what have I let myself in for’ must be mad even atempting this silly event – BUT it’s not about me is it? HUGE cause let’s spread the word get those shillings in PLEASE.

David: Coming into this week feeling good, good weekend two hard sessions and then into to Monday with a confident swim, Tuesday started to feel the affects of a sore throat & generally feeling unwell!!!!! Decided to give myself 24 hours rest, or is that a mistake !!!!

So hard to get motivated this week when I’m feeling tired – I don’t think my body was designed to do all this exercise it HURTS !  – however all I need to think about is the reason we are putting ourselves through this and it spurs you on – now is the time to hassle people to dip in their pockets and support the Headcase charity – Come one everyone let’s make a difference ! 
Now I’m ready and motivated for more – let’s do this.

It gets harder, even with such an important game on the TV I was doing the my 100 lengths, but feeling good for the start of the new week. 

End of the month, end of the week, well over 100K completed on the bike with still the one big session of the week to come on Sunday – happy with training routine presently should get more miles done running and certainly some swimming but with 14 odd weeks to go until the big day things I think are on track ! famous last words but I am feeling pretty good so let’s remain upbeat and positive – BRING IT ON
