First the website, now the blog page.....

We've finally climbed off the bike and out of the pool to find time to sort out the medium for documenting the trials and tribulations of moving from the sofa to a 4 day ironman with bonus hockey matches, in little more than three months.

I had my first consecutive outings last weekend on the bike, and actually found that I wasn't pedalling on Day 2 to propel myself forward, but more to lift my backside from an unbelievably narrow saddle.

I also took on Florida's ocean, only to find that further out than the breakline I was Jacksonville's top candidate for drowning, but nearer the shore than where the waves were crashing down wasn't exactly productive either (the human wsashing machine).

Back to the pool methinks....
