October Training Update

After last month's leisurely pace I could already feel the 'winter plumage' spreading around my waist so have tried to pick up the training again this month (always difficult with no event in mind)! Slightly disappointed that the RNLI aren't running their Reindeer 10km in Knowsley this year which has traditionally been my last event of the year... Another victim of the RNLI closing their Northern Regional Office it seems :-(

Instead I've been concentrating on trying to improve my swim technique at the Crewe Tigers Tri Club Swim training sessions.
