Nothing compared to you lot, just a fun couple of days out with friends.

Yeah the altitude is a worry, i've got my first taste of it this weekend, don't think it's as high as you go though.

Some great blogs out there from the racers.

Recovery - there was me thinking the best thing was to spend most of the day with my feet up and go for a gentle walk round the block... Enjoying a glass of wine now, though.

Same here Phil, nice steak and a few glasses of Merlot.

As for sex!!! I think the rest of my body requires that blood supply!!!

No steak here. Nor a recovery run despite the best of intentions. And definitely no wine or sex. Life sort of got in the way.

I might remedy the wine issue in a second though....

The wine wasn't such a good idea :-(

Have had to resort to drugs for the first time before/since/during the race. Two IBU's have been popped. :-(

Up at 5:30 to get the train was a struggle, especially after yet another night of virtually no sleep.

Oh well...
