Team News, Swimming and Physio

April 28th, 2006

The team of people taking part in the Chicago Triathlon met up on Wednesday to talk about fundraising, training, equipment, and logistics. It was nice to meet everybody; there’s a great group of 10 people taking part, so hopefully together we’ll be able to raise some serious money and have fun.

I really enjoyed the swimming this morning, and I’m starting to get an inkling for some of the technique. The slower and more deliberate I swim the easier I find the technique, and my endurance is slowly (very slowly) getting better.

And in other news, I had physiotherapy today after work, which went really well. I was very impressed with the team at Sports Med Ireland, who looked after me very well, gave me a thorough assessment and after doing some strength exercises, gave me some work to do between now and my next session. I can’t say physio was “fun”, but I’m glad that the problems with my back and left side were looked at.
