All these bikes and just me. where did everybody go?! 😂 A lonely transition area 😊 🏊🏻‍♀️ 🚴🏼‍♀️ 🏃🏻‍♀️.. T R I i N G #triathlon #triathlon_world #running #swimming #cycling #tnbc #tnbcsurvivor #nevertoolate #nevertoolate #womenwhocycle #bridgingthegap #cyclingwomen #triwomen

🚴🏼‍♀️ .. Big sky and windmills... cycling around Lincolnshire is never boring. 🚴🏼‍♀️ 🌝 🌻 🐝 #cycling #womenwhocycle #triathlontraining #cyclinglife #fitforlife #nevertooold #nevertoolate #bridgingthegap

🌸🐝 5 words that I said I would NEVER utter.... “I think I’ll run 10K” 🏃🏻‍♀️ I often groan on about how much I hate running and that I have forced myself to stagger to 5k in order to do a sprint triathlon but these last few days I have begun to enjoy the running, so much so that I have actually muttered ..and meant ... “I think I’ll run 10k” 💪🏼 All thanks goes to my running buddy @amyelizabethwillis who talks to me the WHOLE way round taking my mind off my heavy plodding feet. Thanks to Amy, I have now agreed to (steadily) increase the distance and aim for 10K. I’ve not done it yet but I’m putting it out there so I can’t slither out of it. Watch this space. 💫 🌷 🌝 #running #triathlontraining #tnbc #fitforlife #inspiration #runningbuddies #nevertooold #womensupportingwomen #strongertogether #runchatuk #bridgingthegap #foreverfaster #foreverfierce

... ❗️EDIT❗️ - I just want to add that this lake is an official swimming lake with lifeguards and full safety checks. Please don’t swim in lakes or rivers that are not designated safe swim areas. Keep cool. Swim Safe. 💦 Win Win - Making the most of this beautiful warm weather and getting in some training at the same time. 😀 A nice cooling dip in the lake - perfect 🏊🏻‍♀️😎 x 0 x 0 #swimbikerun #swimming #greatoutdoors #tnbc #triathlontraining #training #nevertoolate #womenwhotrain #womenwhodo #activitiesaway #openwater #safeswimming #sharetheswimlove

Really pleased to have completed my 2nd Sprint Triathlon at the weekend. Especially pleased to have improved on my times (which was quite a surprise) I did the first one for the achievement, the second to prove it wasn’t a flakey fluke but now, I think I might be hooked! 😂 watch this space 💪🏼. Thanks for all the support (especially my poor sidekick John) and thanks to @osbevents for a brilliant and well organised event. “I’ll be back!” S 🏊🏻‍♀️ B 🚴‍♂️ R 🏃🏼‍♀️ #triathlon #nevertooold #swimbikerun #tnbc #breastcancerawareness #liv #howeeliv #lifeaftercancer #agenobarrier

Training Update

Well. in all my infinite wisdom, I have signed up my 61 year old body and that of my 66 year old husband for TWO TRIATHLONS next year! Training will commence in earnest in February 2019 but until then, we aim to try and get ourselves off the settee and rid of the winter belly with a little bit of pre-training training. Watch this space!

Chit Chat

I’m currently looking for some fashion ideas for women who, like me, have opted to go flat and not have a rebuild after Breast Cancer surgery. If this would be of any interest, let me know what you think x
