27th June - Swim
London Fields Lido
5km - 1hr 30:27 (PB)
Great swim, felt in the zone. Good split through 1.5km and pleased with a solid PB through 3km. I have swum a 5km only once before (on 27th October 2007) when I did it in 1hr 53:27. Slashing 23 minutes off my time isn't a bad effort!

15th June - UK Ironman 70.3 Triathlon
UK Ironman 70.3 Triathlon, Wimbleball, Somerset
1.2 mile Swim 34:55 (PB)
T1 7:08
56 mile Bike 3:16:31 (PB)
T2 2:04
Half-Marathon Run 1:54:32
Total 5:55:10 (PB by 22 seconds!)
Overall found the day pretty tough and was disappointed not to go sub-5:45 which was my target, and was on after 6 miles of the run. This year the swim was a mass start and was very physical, lots of kicking going on and I'm sure I cold have gone faster in clear water. Having said this the swim was a PB. I was pleased with the bike split and passed a lot of people and took 15 minutes off my bike split PB on this course. The run was disappointing and I gave back the advantage that I had built up on the Bike leg.
My recovery has been quick though and this looks good for the Ironman in Germany in a month's time.
