Training week six - up to my neck in it

As you will have gathered, I'm no expert on weight-lifting. But I'm fairly confident you are not supposed to hear crunching noises in the top of your back when you try hard for that last rep.
On the plus side, it gave my physio a bit of variety to her work on my now regular visit.
Luckily for me, it wasn't anything serious - nothing more than a twinge, probably caused by an old injury than anything new.
Anyone who has read any of my previous entries will know of my utter incompetence on two wheels. But those skills are given a run for their money by my ability (or lack thereof) on a snowboard.
On my last trip to Austria, one of my many spectacular falls left me with what felt very much like whiplash. And my physio more or less confirmed that the regular cricked necks I have suffered since are probably a throwabck.

But before I start sounding like some sort of hospital case, I need to point out that there have been two major boosts to the Tunney challenge this week.
First, I think the end is in my sight for the incredibly tedious calf injury. Was given the green light for a little 10-minute run this week - and there seems to have been no reaction. A spinning class and a 24km bike ride afterwards also seem to have gone ok.
Second, my spot was confirmed in the London triathlon. So I will be pounding the streets of the capital on August 2 after swimming in the Docklands.

Pretty exciting, even if I do feel a million miles away from being ready at the moment.
Still, at least my latest trip on the horror machine otherwise known as a racing bike involved not crashing, at least I'm making some progress. Right?
