I did it!!  It was the most amazing feeling to complete my challenge.  I came in under 2 hours, which was my aim.  Thank you to all of my supporters and especially Sam, who ran the last 100 metres with me!

The morning of the triathlon.  Click on the picture for my rather nervous last video…

Well, my last weekend of training is over!  I have done a 750m outdoor swim, a 27k bike ride and a run around Quicks Road Park!  I am excited and nervous about next week, but I am looking forward to completing this challenge.  Thank you for all of your support, sponsorship and messages.

I am feeling rather nervous this week; it is only 10 days until I do my triathlon!  Last weekend I swam in the Tooting Lido pool again – this time a barmy 11.5 degrees.  I was very cold but more prepared this time.  Out Royal Albert Hall rehearsal was on Sunday, so I made sure that I biked there and back (with a slightly longer route.)  This weekend I am going to do all 3: run, bike and swim for the final time.  I’ll let you know how I get on.  Watch this space…

I hope everyone is enjoying the May bank holiday!  Today I went to Tooting Lido to do an outdoor swim.  The water was 12 degrees and although I had my wetsuit on I was  very very cold indeed!  I hope Dorney Lake is a little warmer in 3 weeks time!
