Tri to train
Tri to recover
Tri to taper
Tri to race
Tri to eat jaffa cakes and 9Bars
Tri to be humble
Tri not to over train
Tri to put others first (apart from when racing)
Today is 16 Oct 22. Time to review the purpose of this Blog - again! It is 2 years since the last review. 🤕 2022 was shaping up well and I was on track for a decent middle distance Duathlon race. Then COVID hit me! I tried to salvage the race season but never felt strong or healthy. Looking to 2023 now and focussing on being healthy and some sprint Duathlon racing mixed with some bike TT fun on the Canyon CF

Stomach Troubles
Pesky tummy bug got me. No training for last 2 days. Very frustrating. . . .
I don't know how many ways I can explain to you why you are so susceptible to illness but I'll try again because I really would like to see you well!
High carb intake (particularly from anything grain related) induces large amounts of inflammation, this messes with the immune system and the digestion and allows all manner of crap through that shouldn't be circulating. Over-taxed immune system = one that will catch every bug going ... and yes and high levels of stress (whether that be in your life or physical from sport promotes large amounts of cortisol this also messes with your immune system).
I will keep trying to persuade you or you block me from commenting!
I don't think this tummy bug is down to lack of immune system. Rest of family got it too. I seem to be rid of it now. But don't worry, I am easing back into training. . . . .

Sorry to hear that Sags!
Don't worry, when you feel better you can smash out 2-3 training each day, that should help! ;-)

Cave girl has sold it to me. Mark, take it easy just 1 day at a time, see how you feel and then maybe come back into training.
Jaffa Cake overload?
