Just when it seems things are going to be OK I take another knock back. The ankle injury seems to be on the mend and I managed a steady test run of 3 miles on it today. I will see how it feels tomorrow but I think it might be ready to build up slowly over the next few weeks. The bad news is I've had a major colitis flare up and my insides are in pieces. I've been back at the doctors today and I have to go into hospital on Friday to see the specialist for an emergency sigmoidoscopy. It looks like the medication might not be working out as the flare ups are becoming more frequent. I may have to try a different type of medication but will know more on Friday after the tests. Its not the best timing and I am worried as its only 4 weeks this Sunday until race day. Not feeling too good and definitely loosing motivation and confidence as each day goes by. The target time for IM South Africa is not looking good and just a finish is becoming the new target.
Got some new tyres today for the race wheels, Michelin pro 3 race with white sidewalls to match the white saddle and bar tape on the race bike. What do you think of them?

Daz, I really feel for you. I hope the doctors let you know where you stand on Friday. Keep looking after yourself and don't forget how much training you've already got in the bag. All the best,
Debs
Best wishes for a swift resolution of this particular issue.
The Pro Race 3 is a great tyre and colour co-ordinated as well - got to be worth another mph on its own!
