Change of Plans

As usual I have not been great at updating the blog. Been pretty busy with a number of things going on so it had slipped my mind.
My event plans for this year have changed quite a bit over the last week or so.
I am no longer doing the Winchester Fast Twitch Tri as it has a 6 mile run which is too far for me with the current levels of training - don't want to push the knee too hard too quickly.
Unfortunately I did not get an entry for the local Hart tri as it was sold out.
I am instead doing the Henley on Thames tri in June and have sent off an entry for the Salisbury tri in May.
I had an entry for the Hampshire Hilly Hundred in May, due to the size of the waiting list the organisers offered the option to defer entry to next year for no charge, as a 100 mile sportive does not really fit in to my event plans this year I have taken up this offer.
I have also entered an off road duathlon in September which combines cross country running and mountain biking. Due to entering this event, coupled with the aim to start mountain bike racing in autumn and Evans doing a 10% discount on bikes over Easter, I have bought a new mountain bike. Oops!! So currently waiting for the call to go an pick up my new Specialized Rockhopper SL. With the forecast for the weekend looking great I am looking forward to getting the new bike out for a play.
