Poor week of training

Last week I moved house. Because of that, I didn't get much training in. I only really managed to cycle to work. I had planned to swim a few days, but what with things being moved around and having to tidy up the old house, it didn't happen.

Yesterday we had another match, we played Arva in Belcoo. The weather was horrible. It had changed from warm and sunny to cold and windy. We played with the wind in the first half and were up by a couple of goals at half time. In the second half, the wind seemed to drop and we managed to keep our noses in front. In the end we won handsomely enough by about 9 points or so.

I spent today painting my room, got two coats onto it, but the wallpaper is still showing through. Some more painting tomorrow, I think.

An intro

This site is going to detail the training that I intend to do and actually do in preparation for the Swiss Half Ironman in June of 2008. I will be doing it with Greg, who has already entered, so he has upped the ante already.

My sporting history has been quite varied. I play Gaelic Football for a Junior club in Cavan and have also played Canoe Polo all over the world with the Irish team and various club teams. I think the training for these sports will help me in being stubborn enough to complete the half ironman :)
