Hi all,
after 4 years in the sport with constant progress and a lot of fun I wanted to go long distance in 2018. Everything looked perfect. Healthy, good job (good hours, low stress), kids grown up a little, wife OK with my plan, equipment all sorted....
two days ago head of the company storms into my office telling me that a guy will leave the company and if I would like to get his job....dammit. Very decent salary raise, big jump up the corporate ladder.
I was inclined to say no, but then triathlon is just a hobby after all - unfortunately. Looks like my long distance debut has to wait a few more years. Glad that there are tons of great HIM races that I will still be able to do.
So, guys give me your numbers. How many hours do you work while still being competitive in long distance? Maybe I am just too much of a wimp... ;-)
