Season is here..

My god.. where did the winter go? I have a time trial next weekend round Pendle Hill and then it's the NW Duathlon Championships at Parbold nr Wigan.. 3 time up the hill! Today I booked the lake for our weekly openwater swim sessions near Wigan and hesitated when I spoke to the owners over the phone.. "6th May.. are you sure you want to swim openwater so early?".. err.. hang on... (calendar check).. yep.. let's start on the 6th May, that gives us 2 swims before the Keswick Tri in Derwent Water which is generally hovering just above freezing in July!! So it's booked and we start open water training in 10 weeks.. of course, it's not all cold, there is the trip to Lanza in a couple of weeks just to top up on the tan.. ah well.. better shave the legs then :)
