Saturday: Anyone like to jump in and do a 3,8k swim. 0 degrees C in the air and 15,5 in the water. 12 or so doing the IM distance in the very local race “IronDuck” did:-) The bouys was white, not easy to see in the fog…so I did a fairly bad swim in 1.12…blahhh!
Run turnaround on IronDuck. 14 laps of 3,04km…or something like that:-) After a 5.13 bikeride of 9 laps I DNFèd like planned after 4 laps (12k) running.
220k hilly ride on Sunday. Here at beautiful and famous Mount Gaustadtoppen (yes the finnish off Norseman Xtreme is right up left) It`s bether to bike than run up here for sure:-)
Gaustadtoppen, finish on Norseman Xtreme. Glad i did not have to run up yesterday.
7h 15min swim bike run saturday. 7h 50min bike sunday. Nice weekend. Hope it gets hotter in Kona))
Ok…you got me beat. It snowed here in the mountains last night, though. On sunday I was able to put in a long ride in nice 20°C. My long run this morning was 10°C and raining…
One of the challenges for us mountain people concerning IM Hawaii is to get to the start-line in good health and with enough miles in the legs regardless of the climate at home.
I have 4 more weeks and 1 day to go until I leave for Kona.
All the best for your training stay focused and strong.
