My week in review:
A pretty disappointing week of training. I put this down to a couple of issues:
1) End of the month is always busy at work trying to get as many jobs complete and this month was pretty lean fee wise at work so I needed to knuckle down and put in some hours in the later part of the week.
2) I have come to the realisation that I am actually pretty apprehensive about training for an Ironman, especially IMWA. I had a race I was really proud of in 2011 which of as result of hard, solid training. I need to get back into the head space I was in 2011 and I am not there yet! One step at a time...
