NO LOVE HANDLES ALLOWED!

'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.' Theodore Roosevelt 23 April 1910

Half Ireman - Quick Report

Reg 5:31:17, 37th overall, 10th in AG
Kelda 5:32:41, 38th overall, 1st in AG
Me 5:45:29, 58th overall, 4th in AG

Yes indeed, 4th in AG.

It started grey, the water was cold, the bike course was tough, the sun shone, and I left my run legs at home.

What a great race and a marvellous end to a brilliant season for me. Full report to follow soon.

even taking in to account that most pensioners wouldn't complete, 4th is pretty darn good!
