On Monday April 10th 2023 (less than two months away) we’re swimming, cycling and running a mini triathlon.

TRY being the key word here!

The stats

432m swim

20k cycle

5k run

The cause

The Backstory (if you’re interested):

One January evening, across the dinner table,

Elliot: “Question for you…

(Pause)

[You never know what you’re going to get with a Roston question]

We’ve signed up for a mini-triathlon. Want to join?”

Ha. Obviously not.

The two more senior of the group have never even run a 5k alone. One doesn’t own a bike and is slightly fearful/absolutely petrified of getting back on one. Although luckily, it’s as easy as riding a bike

More than that…

Fitness levels are low. Confidence, if possible, lower.

And yet - as you may have suspected from this message - fast forward a few weeks later, and we’ve all signed up.

And so, the training regime has commenced. If you see our red sweaty faces running/cycling on a road near you - you now know why!

Genuine advice = appreciated

Morale boosting support = encouraged

We may or may not update you with our progress. But for now, time to get on our bikes!
