Ironman 70.3 Swansea ✅ Just like that… it’s done! What can I say the quality in this sport is so high now! It was a solid day for me! Not amazing, but far from poor (I never say there’s bad days, there’s always something to take from it) 💪 I’m not going to go in to what went wrong and put excuses in (like hot weather, mechanicals you know what I mean 🙈) these things are all part of racing, they happen and you get on with them! I’ll talk about what positives I’m taking away from yesterday’s performance! 💪 1️⃣ - Fastest ever non wetsuit swim performance! 2️⃣ - Highest bike power for a 70.3! 3️⃣ - I might not have been racing at the front, but I was racing the guys around me! 4️⃣ - 60 places gained in PTO world rankings. 5️⃣ - First step of the comeback is complete, it’s been a hard year with injury and burning myself out. This is just the first step in my return to full race fitness! 📈 6️⃣ - Most importantly I remembered why I love this sport, the atmosphere and support on the course was like nothing I’ve seen before! 🙏 To everyone who shouted my name, offered support, picked me up when it got hard! You’ve reminded me how special the Triathlon community is! THANK YOU Swansea! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 I’m yet to decide where I race next, but the 2nd part of the season will have plenty of racing 🤙 #ironman #halfironman #swansea #protriathlete #racing #swimbikerun #wales #thankyou
