Karen's Hat Trick for Sands

  • Focus on the revs

      19 February 2014

    T2 Training today, half distance bike, full distance run... tough in the blazing sun, I'm hoping for some clouds on event day and maybe a few light specks of rain! :) After pedalling in high gears last Sat (thinking it would be more efficient) and getting jelly legs in the transition, Lynley the Tri coach (Past Ironman champ, I so bow down!) told me it's better to focus on keeping around 85-90 rpm so as not to fatigue the muscles, especially with the headwind we get up the coast, which is what I tried today and had a much better transition into the run, yay! Biking to Zumba tonight so will keep practising!

  • Jelly legs

      16 February 2014

    Did the duathlon training yesterday and completed the full distances, phew, it's much harder than I thought, my legs were like jelly coming off the bike into the run transition... 2 weeks to go, eek! Hats off to all the ladies taking part and I am in awe of the triathletes, go ladies, it's going to be a fab event!
