Its Tuesday and its been a good day on the training front. A near 2 hour ride on the road this morning with the Quay St guys and then an hour swim this evening with the Tri Club. Not to mention yesterday for the first time in about 3 weeks I completed my 50min run, only because Liza dobbed on me, in the last blog entry, I got an email from a mate about 30sec later said I better be in my running gear by 5pm as she was popping round and we were heading out for a run. So thanks ! I was dreading it but it was great :)
Funny story bout the same mate, it seems Jafas class 'sponsored riders' as being professionals, where as us cantabs merely refer to being a 'sponsored rider' if you managed to score your sister inlaws old road bike and bits and pieces. So when I said jokingly one day I was a 'sponsored rider' it seems they assumed the Jafa interpretation !!!! I wonder what they must have been thinking when they saw me ride for the first time ???
Just to be clear Im a riding novice, in fact Im really an exercise novice !!! It's been a 5 year journey ... stay tuned for my next entry ...
Well you had them all fooled for quite a while about this whole sponsored athlete gig!!! I think its hilarious that a simple concept can be so differently interpreted. Just quietly - I think you can almost say you are sponsored by the Avanti shop in Mt Wellington after the amount of gear that has been purchased from them!!! xx
