Who
Ironman – Day 1
by Matt on Nov.15, 2009, under Who
To kick things off some more info about me. I’m 37, I have a partner – Laura, and a daughter. I’m one of the directors of a small bespoke software development company called Jemmac Software. I’ve been running fairly slowly for a few years. I don’t typically enter races, in the past I’ve taken part in one 10K race (50mins) and one short sprint Triathlon (1hr 22mins).
As of today,
- I run about 15-25 miles per week.
- I usually run about 9 minute miles.
- Every year (seemingly) my left knee conks out
- I bike a few miles each week (usually to and from the pub quiz) for leisure
- I don’t have a proper ‘race’ bike
- The furthest I’ve swum recently is about 800m. My technique is currently “trying not to drown”.
More info will follow – but hopefully this sets the scene.
