Ah winter training is always the bit i dread. I have to say i'm very much a fair weather triathlete - this doesn't fit too well in the UK and in the far North East of Scotland possibly even less so! But thankfully my new turbo trainer has arrived- my bright green Kurt Kinetic Rock n Roll trainer. i haven't used it yet, but i'm looking forward to it already, apparently it will allow me to bounce side to side on my sufferfest videos like just on a real bike, which should really help with my training. This morning i did make the swimming pool for a very poor 40 minute session. This is the bit i really have to force myself to do twice a week as i really don't like swimming, but it was pointed out on Monday that i have a good front end of my arm stroke but then it doesn't really do anything at the back end. No push, no acceleration - this may explain the little old ladies zipping past me at todays morning session. Ah well. At least i have my bright green machine to look forward too!
At this point i should also thank my wife for letting me have this set up in the Kitchen :)....
