Hi all (especially manchester contingent)
Not sure where this best goes but here will do for now.
Ironman time is this weekend for me up in sunny Bolton !
So i'm sat around this week twiddling my thumbs writing lists and polishing my bike !
Those that don't know this is a 3.8km swim in Rivington Reservoir, followed by a 112mile (3lap) bike and a marathon ending outside the town hall in Bolton.
My number is 1345 and you should be able to track my progress or lack thereof at

Locals be warned as I rode the bike course and some of the run last weekend and road closure warnings & signage was few and far between, something we motorists in this country arent very good with putting up with !
Here's the road closure info:
