Highlight and lowlight probably got to be my unexpected ultra duathlon. Signed up for Hamburg Ironman - weather was unseasonably hot, enough so that the blue/green algae in the lake got to unsafe levels and the council declared nobody was allowed in the water. So it became 6k run/180k bike/42k run.
All going swimmingly (minus the lack of swim) until half way around the marathon where my almost-never-happens-but-very-occasionally-does-fashionable-sports-induced-asthma kicked in and I had to run/walk for about 2.5 hours. So while I'm aware that an Ironman [branded event] should be a fairly big deal, it was bloody annoying how it panned out.
Planning to put it right at Challenge Roth next July. Maybe even get a swim at the start of it.
