What's in store for 2026 ?


 Hopes and dreams and all that ! 

Last season was crazy - with racing twice a week and sometimes 3,4. It took loads of energy and having managed to finally get to the top of the Wheelers mountain after 14 seasons, I feel it's something I don't need to repeat.

So next year will be three simple aims 

1 - Complete a half distance Ironman in under 5 hours - this could be tricky, as I have come close before, being within half a minute, but that was 2019 me, not 53 year old me.

2- Qualify for the Middle & Long Distance Duathlon Championships for 2027 when I'll be the youngest in the 55-60 AG.

3- Do well in the Velo 99 road race series.

To achieve the above I've entered both the new Outlaw Middle event at the end of July, and Ironman Knokke -Heist 70.3 in September. Again over winter, I'll just ride my bike and make sure I'm tippy toppy on the bike, and then add in running when the TT season starts, and then swimming when it's warmer at the lake. 

As this is written, just 3 months until the start of the season !
