I was shown the Graffiti Tunnel over the weekend, by @xavi_borjabucar and @pau.nn (THANKS). All this time in London and I'd never heard of it, so never been. What an incredible place of artists doing their art. Absolutely loved it!! by @softsavage

Absolutely stunning morning (though a bit brisk) for a 45km Novice ride with Sadh and Graham. Usual Cudham loop averaging 20.xkm/h. taken in Cudham by @softsavage

Supporting the @GreenwichTritons at today's parkrun. I'm still recovering from knee twinges etc, from the hiking. Back to running parkrun next week. taken in Sutcliffe parkrun by @softsavage

One of the hardest walks/hikes I've ever done!! The walk up was HARD, but as the route was a loop the walk down was worse!! Absolutely brutal along narrow paths and slippery rocks and leaves, with sheer drops. Slipped at least 15 times. 12km round trip and about 6:30 of walking!!

The only saving grace in the way down were the stunning views!

As I didn't expect it to be that hard, we weren't prepared for the down route to be so steep and so perilous. Need to be better prepared in future for even worst case scenarios, like injuries and having to stay outside overnight. taken in Sardagna, Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy by @softsavage

Last Standing Crew from the @BlackTriTribe for our last OWS coached session. Almost everyone else had swum @Dock2DockLondon that morning. Today was another week of putting it all together. So straight in doing the West Reservoir 300m loop. Then a shorter 100m loop followed by a couple out and backs to practice sighting turns etc.

It has been a pleasure to teach everyone who came on the course and to see people pushing themselves out of their comfort zones every week, so they can grow physically and mentally.
As a coach that's great to see.

I hope everyone got something out of the lessons and they'll hopefully continue to practice, even in the pool, some of the things we covered. Be better today than yesterday and that just comes with consistency 🙂.

What a great community Kelly and the team has built up and it was clearly evident during the Tri a Ting atmosphere, last week.

Lastly thanks @kellysmith.onthego and @cooperkinetix for putting your trust in having me coach your athletes.

Much hugs to all.

Coaching Tuesdays: Some hill reps for the @greenwichtritons last night.
I did my hill reps session beforehand.
This time something a little different.
Slow reps.
Slow down and maintaining the same slow speed up.
Focusing on good form and driving through the whole range of push off motion.

A post swim coaching catch-up w/@bronwenhyde (a long time coming) at a Mauritian restaurant called @LeChamarel . I had the boulette soup, Min Frite and aluda! The chilli went really well with the min and tasted like proper Mauritian chilli, to me. Great to see Bronwen after so long! taken in Le Chamarel by @softsavage

A rainy session today w/@blacktritribe . Unfortunately cut short due to some selfish people holding a wedding reception or similar there, so we got kicked out early. taken in West Reservoir Centre by @softsavage

My 10th official @parkrunuk. My 7th at @sutcliffeparkrun (I've done others here but I didn't have my bar code a few times, so it doesn't count 😜). Slowly building my running back up. 35:XX this week.

It's a 3 lap course. Since Maria wasn't there I still tried to keep things easy, but ran the whole first lap, then ran and walked the 2nd lap, then again ran the 3rd lap. Picking up pace a little in the last 200m. Felt pretty good throughout.

Ultimate goal is to go sub 20 by my 60th in 18 months time.
I'm going to follow the Norwegian method and will see how that goes. taken in Sutcliffe Park by @softsavage

Some of the photos from the @SLS3Triathlon photo shoot out in Brighton a few months ago. Great day out with a great group of people.
Thanks for organising @pipscs and for the photos Jack.
They really are the MOST comfortable tri-suits I've tried in recent years. Apart from the US, SLS3 now also SELL in the UK, so grab yours!!
