Steve: Have you been going long?

Me: Pretty regularly for a couple of years

Steve: So, when do expect to start seeing results?


Provocation, I think you'll agree, and it was what drove me to commit to the West Wight Triathlon (and to secure the first £50 of sponsorship).

Following the excellent example of the Reluctant Marathon Man, I'll try to keep this blog updated, so my progress towards the objective is recorded. I'll also list the shopping opportunities the event throws up, for the technically minded!
