Today's Journal
Feeling a little fatigued and tired the morning session did not happen, probably looking to transfer it to another time.

During the day I ended up watching a TV program Foxtel had on the 2006 Australian Ironman...very inspiring. Chris McCormick is someone to admire. Just to see all those age group competitor finish the 3.8km swim, 180km cycle and 42.2km run just proves that it is definately an achieveable goal for 2008. You learn so much about the sport by just watching both the Professionals and the Age Groupers...the gear...what happens in tranistion...etc. It is something worth keeping and watching again.

In fact I have set the IQ box to record the various ITU Triathlons and Ironman races Foxtel are featuring over the next couple of weeks. I am finding them a useful training tool...the number of tips and ideas I have picked up just watching this race has been so worthwhile.
