Helvellyn Triathlon

[Harry H Howgill]

i reckon ullswater will be freezing. Dont know the reasdon why but i am told that it is usually colder than most of the lakes, possibly due to its depth? we need a geographer - but if you thinking of windermere or rydal; i'd be keen. keep me posted/emailed

I'll let you know when I'm going out. Will probably pluck up some courage after Easter. I hear that Rydal is a favourite spot for training - maybe it is warmer. I'm planning on going down to Troutbeck pool one Tuesday or Friday for some training with Westmoreland Tri. I'll let you know.

I went down to Troutbeck a few weeks ago. Its pretty decent if you want some advice/tips, training ideas etc. I was glad I went but I felt my own swimming training 'regime' was working quite nicely and I had nothing extra to gain from going. Plus they wanted me to join at 30 quid for the season...

This triathlon lark gets expensive taking it seriously. I don't mind paying for a session or two though, to alter my thrashing about in the pool towards some sort of technique. Someone told me that there are a couple of swimming events coming up in Windermere over the summer which I might have a go at. If I find any details I'll post the link. I'm off for a google....

One more strike (or is that stroke) and I'm out!

I've entered a practice one in May and one in June - £25 each!

At that price I expect maidens to towel me try in the first transition, and more of them to fasten my running shoes in transition two.

£25 per maiden isn't a bad rate.

Mud usually gets it for free though..gift of the gab...
