Nice Weather for Ducks

Well my first Triathlon of the season will be tomorrow, on the day of my 45th birthday. Most of my friends think I am mad, especially as the local 6 mile road race is on Sunday and I have the "Over 40s" title to defend. This means no heavy celebrations for my birthday. Actually I seem to remember the same situation last year and I managed the run after numerous pints of Guinness and a Curry the night before so maybe I shall adopt the same pre race nutrition strategy.

The bad news is it looks like this will be my third consecutive Triathlon in the rain.
There will be 15mph winds as well which will be channeled nicely down the Eton Rowing lake where we shall be riding. As with last year it looks like being a bike ride at 20kmh against the wind and 45kmh with it.
