Cloudy day. Liverpool. 21st June. Hot, wet, sweaty and full-on for 1 hour 29 minutes. She probably wasn't the best looking in the world, or the hardest to conquer but certainly worth another crack at next year.
Top drawer experience and I learnt more in one morning than from months of training and reading. Important things like not laughing at people on DVDs trying to get a leg out of a wetsuit, before trying it yourself in race conditions; you are not a vain dandy for wearing sunglasses on the bike when it's not sunny - flies in the eyes hurt; it really is about the bike, Lance; 5k after a swim and bike is further than 5k without.
Most important however, I still resepcted her in the morning.
