2018 race season starts tomorrow....

Uni work has been a bit crazy the last couple of months for Angus and I so we haven’t had that much time for social media, blogs etc so we thought we’d just sum up what we’ve been up to ahead of our first Tri of 2018 tomorrow! :O  Swimming Starting with the first and best triathlon discipline, swimming (Angus rolls his eyes). We’ve been swimming for Leander Swimming Club and really enjoying it! It’s been a great way to get us back in the pool regularly after our non-existent winter training. I think even Angus will agree that we’ve both found our love for the water again and are starting to see some speed again. We’ve been fitting in between 3 and  5 swim sessions a week ranging between an hour and an hour and a half.

For those of you who haven’t heard of Battle Oats, they are an energy snack which are 100% natural and gluten free.

Let’s start with the flapjack, one of my favourite treats!

Less than two weeks to my first event of the year so it’s time to for an update post! Firstly, if you haven’t already heard through my social media accounts, Angus and I, after meeting through triathlon in 2015 and falling in love while training and racing together, are now creating our own triathlon couple team, ‘Team Emgus’, making us a unique power couple! Through Team Emgus we will share our triathlon journey together. Please follow our social media accounts for more information, announcements and giveaways in the next few weeks...  ·        Twitter @teamemgus ·        Instagram @teamemgus ·        Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/teamemgus/ It’s been a busy winter and unfortunately, Angus and I haven’t had the best winter of training. I picked up a knee injury from the start of January and have been unable to cycle and run without being in lots of pain and recently Angus has a bad back meaning he is unable to train some days. But I’m happy to see things imp
