Baby Racer

So as not to stress the legs too much, Friday and Saturday were both walks of about 50 minutes each, with a small degree of difficulty added. On Friday I included the stairs from Shelly Beach up to Harry’s Lookout. On Saturday Isabel woke up before me around 5am and wouldn’t go back to sleep. So I strapped her onto my chest and she came along for a walk with my Dad down to and along Miners and Shelly Beaches. She really enjoyed it, but of course was tired and crabby later in the day!


Monday Swim 1.2km
Very average sort of a day, but I made it to the pool anyway. Mixed this one up quite a bit, and covered 800m freestyle plus 400m breaststroke.


Tuesday Run 6km
I hadn’t run for a week and a half, and on the physio’s recommendation this one was more of a shuffle. Took it really easy which made for a relaxing run to start the day. No complaints from the calf during or after the run. Now all I need to do is not trip on any of the toys sprawled all over the house and I should be right.


Wednesday Cycle 18km
I haven’t been pushing all that hard on my last few rides, and today was no exception. I went along Lighthouse Beach before heading slightly inland to make my way into town before the home run along Pacific Drive.


What a great time of year…nice moderate temperature, it’s getting light around 5am so it’s easy to get up, heaps of people are out well before 6am and daylight savings is just a couple of weeks away.


As Wobbly Man rightly pointed out I have neglected a photo of the cycle leg of the baby triathlon in my previous post. In the interests of fair and equitable coverage I give you…the baby cycle leg:


Yes, I know we didn’t get her the performance model, but the early years are more about just having fun...aren’t they? ;)
