Goodbye Nico ❤️ a true gent & all round Oarsum bloke was lost today to cancer #fuckcancer #missingyou #PSOF #goodmemories Sweating back in time. As a new gym is being built our spin classes are in the old school gymnasium. Decades of sweat soaked into floorboards, sticky drinks from school discos and potential hidden asbestos with window nailed shut make for a dusty & airless environment! It's only short term and the new facility will be awesome #oldschool #RPM #lesmills #spinning #sweatingout #maxHR #gym Evening walk with Roxy, standing & staring at the deer across the stubble field. 🦌 So used to each other neither chase or run. Country life. British wildlife #cockerspaniel #workingdog #deer #countryside #dogwalks #stubblefields #wildlife Puppy walks early evening. Curious about the cows, playful & nose down exploring g lane & lavender #cockerspaniel #puppy❤️ First run since LochNess Marathon, think my legs have forgiven me (just!) Dare I say that I actually enjoyed this run - it was easy paced, sunny 😎 warm and even got tan lines ☀️ picked up and ate a free apple, 7 miles done ✅ Training run for LCW Mallorca, be time to taper soon #visorclub #teamwhite #triathlon #asthmaathlete #LCW #Mallorca #running Sky & trees appear to be on fire 🔥 tonight Red sky at night, autumn is coming. #autumn🍁 Winter training has just got so much more interesting, exciting & harder ! Local gym taken first delivery. Set up and sub max test completed although only went to investigate and flush marathon legs out 🤣🚴Wattbike App & Training Peaks linked. A mountain more data available to digest #wattbike #TrainingPeaks #triathlontraining #wintertraining #hittworkout #earlychristmaspresent So excited 😆 Like a hurricane my asthma has been downgraded from severe to moderate 👍🏼😁 Reduced steroids levels required now allow for a single combined inhaler. Less baggage ! First annual Dr & respiratory nurse check ups & tests done ✅ Asthma in control, but not making life easy ! Completed an ironman 140 miles triathlon last month and a marathon this weekend This time last year I was out of breath walking the dog 🐶 Living & learning about asthma - ongoing Also really cool my new inhaler has a countdown display for how many inhales left 💨 Multicolour inhalers for all occasions. Blog - ironman & asthma – my first year www.swimsweatandgears.com #asthmaathlete #asthmasucks #breathingagain #inhalers Ouch that hurt - quads screaming at me. Good Wales training as the weather was blowing a howler at the start with horizontal rain as we were dropped in middle of nowhere with no shelter My running mate has gastro problems so we visited every loo & many trees, pubs & bushes for her ! But we had a laugh & chat, which is what it was all about. Fab dinner last night Golden oldie Nessie cake & good time despite the rain today Marathons are harder than ironman but I guess training would have helped ?! #lochnessmonster #lochnessmarathon2017 #marathon #running #Scotland @racecheck #visorclub #teamwhite Going on a Nessie monster marathon hunt. Running kit ready, whatever the weather decides to throw at us in the morning ☔️💦🐉#lochnessmonster #lochnessmarathon #Scotland #racecheck #visorclub #teamwhite #asthmauk #asthmasucks #asthmaticrunner #running Ishka introduced to a collar & lead for first time. Whirling dervish to start with, before she calmed down. Enjoyed exploring the front garden and loads more fallen leaves to eat 🍂🍃🍁 Then flooded her bed & floor as she emptied her water bowl again ! 💦 💦 #puppy #playful #cockerspaniel ironman Weymouth 70.3 Great supporting in much drier conditions than last weekend ! #PSOF #ChippenhamTri #triathlon #weymouth
