20.01.2022 Night run Wednesday. . Could have easily let this one go tonight. It was late, cold, bit windy, and a little wet. But I got out there and got it done. Not overly far but pushed hard in the intervals and Im glad I did. . When youre considering taking the easy option, ask yourself if you will be happy with that option tomorrow.... . . . . . . . . #fitfatherlife #fitdads #fitdad #fitness #getitdone #nightruns #trainingmotivation #beyourbestself #garminrunning #triathlontraining #swimbikerun #running #brooksrunning See more

19.01.2022 Do you ever have one of those sessions when you just feel flat? Today was one of those. Felt lethargic, heavy, tired, slow.

15.01.2022 So glad to finally be back in the pool today. Not a huge session but made the most of my 45 minute allotment. . Although its not ideal to only have 45 minutes, the positive is that it keeps the focus on the session and leaves no time for distractions....in and out! Plus less swimmers means lanes to myself and that is always a good thing . . .... . . . . #fitfatherlife #temposystems #beyourbestself #swimming #garmin #swim #training #triathlon #trilife #swimriderun #fitness #fitnessmotivation #fitnessjourney See more

14.01.2022 Its not always your speed or time that counts, but the effort you put in to get there. . I did this exact course a couple weeks ago. Today was windiest ride Ive had in a long time. . Consequently I was about 7 minutes slower than a couple weeks ago. Does this mean I am not as good as I was previously? No it doesnt, sometimes pure numbers can lie. ... . Look at your sessions in its entirety & dont lose sight of the big picture. . . . . . . . . #fitfatherlife #garminrides #fitdad #ride #relive #bikelife #triathlontraining #swimbikerun #trainingmotivation #cycling #beyourbestself #trilife See more

11.01.2022 I Havent been up running before sun up for over a year, but thats not to say I havent been up. Over that time it has been because of the arrival of our boy. . Today I could have stayed in bed, and complete todays 1km intervals later. .... It was early, I was tired and it was really damn cold. . But I am so glad I pushed myself to get out there again at this hour of the day. . There is something about running at this time of day. It feels like its just me and the road and nothing else. Apart from the odd bit of wildlife. . There is a calmness, an escape from the busy world, a strange relaxation even though it is hard and a sense of achievement that comes with it. . This is why we do it. . . . . . . . #fitfatherlife #fitdad #fitfather #runningmotivation #runnersofinstagram #run #training #beyourbestself #garminrunning #trilife #getoutthere #justrun

11.01.2022 What an amazing morning for my recovery jog today. I had Mars and Venus shining brightly, seperate by a crystal clear moon. As the sun came up the sky was a brilliant burnt orange/red colour. I also had an audience for part of the journey.

11.01.2022 Ive entered the world of Zwift. Had a little play around then had a go at a pre-programmed workout. I have to say it was enjoyable, I didnt have a high expectation, but I was impressed. Certainly makes the indoor training sessions better. . .... . . . . . #fitfatherlife #temposystems #beyourbestself #zwiftcycling #bikelife #training #cycling #tritraining #swimbikerun #trilife #fitdad #fitdads #fitness #fitfather #thefitlife #bikelife #tri See more

10.01.2022 Delayed my daughters bedtime tonight slightly to take her out and have a look at the planets. The photo doesnt really do it justice. The big one is the moon, Jupiter is the small on and its hard to make out but Saturn was also there. . She looked up in sheer amazement and wonder. One of the best things about parenting is experiencing firsts through the eyes and minds of your child. So good! . Of course there were plenty of questions after. why cant we see the hottest pla...net? And what about the coldest planet? if they are so far away why can we see them? Etc. But definitely worth it. . . . . . #fitfatherlife #parenting #dadlife #thatsmygirl #dad #fatherhood #stargazing #somanyquestions See more

03.01.2022 Today I took my daughter for a bit of a treat and decided to get her a happy meal from MacDonalds. At the completion of the order I was asked if I want the girl toy or the boy toy. I questioned which toy is apparently the boys and the girls. According to @mcdonaldsau boys have to play with cars and girls have to play with horses. Give me a spell Maccas! If my daughter wants to play with cars she can, and if my son wants to play with a horse he can! This kind of gender st...ereotyping is bullshit and can have quite significant affect on young developing minds. Be better than this! . . . . . . #fitfatherlife #dadlife #dads #parenting #fathers #parenthood #bebetter #dissapointed #mcdonalds #genderstereotypes

02.01.2022 Training block 4 complete . : 0 (closed) : 535.5 km : 119.83 km... : 5:35 hours . Last week was a really trying week. Battling my back injury for the majority of it. I have been down and out and unable to train for a few days now, and it is so frustrating. Thankfully I think it should be right again to go tomorrow to start the next phase. . . . . . . . . #fitfatherlife #fitdads #fitness #battlinginjury #training #triathlontraining #myjourney #garminfitness #trilife #beyourbestself #beatyesterday #temposystemstriclub #brooksrunhappyteam2020 #swimbikerun #run #ride See more
