Neglecting duties!

Sometimes it's easy to forget that ironman training isn't a full time occupation or pastime and that there are certain duties around the house that need taken care of by me. I was reminded of that last night by my long suffering (and very supportive) wife. I might ware my pants outside my trousers (metaphorically speaking) but I still need to tidy the kitchen! Fair point well made I thought. Note to self - normal life needs to continue around my training - or maybe that should be the other way round?
This morning I finished the 1st week of the build training with a timed intervals swimming session followed by an hour on the turbo trainer. The iced my knee while having my second breakfast. Now I'm having a rest from training for 2 days and looking forward to going shopping with the family - especially as it's their money we are spending. Before I do that I'm going to put the dishwasher on!
