- So, I'll be doing the Ironman triathlon on Sunday 4th of August, this involves a 2.4 mile swim - 112 mile bike - 26.2 mile run... in that order, back to back. You have 17hours to complete the entire thing but I hope to complete in around 12hours. I've been in training since January and should be failrly well prepared come race day... well, as well prepared as you can be for such a thing!

I'll also be doing the Ironman UK 70.3 in preperation which is half all the above distances.
