New Year, Sidelined!

I’m doing a lot of reading at present as I can’t do much else, I am sidelined for a couple of weeks with a recuring ankle injury. I was recommended to a chiropractor (who I saw on Thursday) by a fellow runner. After getting the whole picture it turns out that I have a neck and back issue too that goes way back in time to when I fell off a horse. After some bone cracking (ow!) she assures me that I’ll be back running in a couple of weeks. At least I can still swim!

I’ve just finished reading ‘Can’t Swim, Ride, Run’ by Andy Holgate which is great, about his journey into triathlon, very amusing and inspirational. I’m reading the ‘Total Immersion’ swim book as my swimming is rubbish and I’ve ordered Liz Yelling’s running book. I’ll be well read if nothing else! I've also set up an online girls only tri club 'Triathlon Chicks' to encourage more women into triathlon that may not want to join a traditional club, or don't have a club near them. It is affiliated to the British Triathlon Federation. Triathlon has given me so much confidence in myself and my (sometimes limited!) abilities that I want to share the benefits!

Hope everyone’s training is going to plan :)
