So after a relaxing holiday in Dubai, drinking copious amounts of champagne and eating lots of really good food in some of the best restaurants in Dubai, I return home.
After having a conversation with my coach we decide before writing Kona off for the year to have another go. I’m left with two options: IM Lanzarote 21st May or IM Brazil 29th May. I know Lanzarote bike route inside out and back to front, having cycled it loads of times at the EDT training camp the last 4 years but I also know that it’s not a good course for me with a massive downhill section and this is definitely not a strength of mine.
So I opt for IM Brazil 29th May. Looks like a pretty flat, fast course and I think I may be able to go sub 11 hours on this one.
