Easy week and racing

Half term

The days leading up to Half Outlaw I learned a few more things about what I end up doing before races.

1. Made sure all the lawn was mowed before we went away.
2. Had a slight cleaning binge.
3. Decided to make bread and pizza on the day that we left.

So expect more baked creations before Ironman Wales, who knows what we’ll end up with, but it was nice to have bread in the freezer when we got home 😉

It was great that it was half term during the same week as Half Outlaw, as it meant we could go and stay a few days in Nottingham, and revisit my old stomping ground! I met up with a friend and took the boys round the castle, and had some lovely meals out (we’ll not include the Pizza Express one, where my vegetarian lasagne was not, and my friends baked pasta was more burnt).

I did have a good few days though and felt a lot more relaxed than I did at Wimbleball, (probably due to me not being woken up by ringing bells every 15 minutes!) I had a great race, which you can read about in my race report which is here.

We got home at about 9pm on Sunday with 2 very tired boys and a mess to tidy up the next day
