This is me
I ’m a 47 year old woman, I work for the Scottish Ambulance Service, and I live in the Scottish Highlands with my partner (Mark, aka Broon), and our Border Collie Riof (pronounced Reef). I recently took up triathlon with a view to completing Celtman Solo Point Five, and the full length Celtman, and I love coffee & cake. So that’s the formalities out of the way… and of course, nothing is ever that simple, is it? We all have history and a backstory, and I’m no exception. I’m starting this blog partly to document my journey in sport & fitness, and partly to help me with a sense of perspective so that I can look back on events as they unfold. A few more important bits about me… I tend to throw myself into things I take on at 110%, I love being outdoors - except when I don’t - and have particularly enjoyed taking up open water swimming recently. In my last previous life I was a sea kayak coach working full time on the water, and I’ve always been heavier than I’d like to be. T
