Stop griping

This is my first post on here so I'll keep it brief. I started proper tri training last year. I have got the crappiest bike, which I never ride and do all my training in the gym.
So, for all you budding, and seasoned triathlists stop griping about the training and get on with it. I make mine as hard as possible, extremely hard so competition is not as tough. Comfort zone? What comfort zone!? Absolutely no off season. All time off work this year has been to do extra training too! My training mantra is "Time to shake hands with the Devil".

    No Zone 1 for you then eh?

    I look forward to seeing you on podiums and in the pages of 220, Tri+ etc.

    I on the other hand look forward to him crashing his bike with shite bike handling skills. Breaking a leg then popping back on here for training advice.

    Failing that then burn out for him.

    All the mental toll of zone 82 training must have worn his fingers out.


    It is hard to stop and log on when you train flat out all the time.


    I was also looking foward to a spat on this subject. Or a gripe or 2.

    I train 25/8 - it's my life.
    My wetsuit's made of lead.
    My race bike is a 1982 silver grifter with blue wheels. It's got three gears, but i only need ONE!
    I run with a rucsack at all times with 200kgs in it.
    But hey, that's just how i roll ;-)
    So stop ya griping.

    Oh, if only that were true! ;-)

    Far from it.... I was rather hoping he'd make another outrageous statement.

    Gotta love it!

    Where's his reply though. Can't start a little spat like this without coming back every so often to stir it up again, lol.

    I'm the opposite though, no training whatsoever until 2days before with a bit of panic phys and then wonder why I'm not hot on the heels of the Brownlees
