Its been a few weeks since the Grantham race, I've made some changes since then. I've started tweeting more and you can follow the tweets @SharpeDaz on twitter. I've also decided to go down the coaching route to see if I can make some progress as although I've done very well over the last few years I think there is improvement still to come but I need some help to get there. My coach Stefan has made a lot of changes to the way I train and after nearly three weeks I'm feeling stronger already. This weekend I will be racing middle distance but with my training plan I will be going into the race tired so I'm not expecting to PB however yesterdays 3 hour bike into 1 1/2 hour run was great and I felt strong so things are looking promising. All the training is built around being in top shape for the World Championships at the end of July, but I have other races on the way to that event to check my progress.
Talking of races I did another sprint a couple of weeks ago at Brize Norton, had a good swim climbing out the water on 5:45 which was nice and the fastest 400 this year for me, had a great battle on the bike and then on the run with Greg Macdonald and the fight went all the way to the finish with Greg pulling away toward the end of the run to take the win by just 13 seconds. It was a great head to head battle and I really enjoyed such close racing.
So its middle distance (Beaver) on Saturday, mountain bike sportive on Sunday and Odiham sprint on Wednesday the 30th, pretty busy few days.
