Local sprint triathlon yesterday. (1/3 mile swim, 14.5 bike, 3.5 run). I had a cold / sore throat for much of the prior couple of weeks so I wasn't expecting much, but I guess I must have been well "rested" because I took 15 seconds off my PB set last year and got on the podium (3rd in my age group out of 24). Lovely weather as well - though the roads were wet from overnight rain which made for a very cautious bike leg. That's triathlon season finished for 2019 - next up is a Thanksgiving day 5k which my daughter is doing with me (she's about 1/2 way through the couch to 5k, but still seems enthusiastic). I might think about a 1/2 marathon some time over the winter.
Good luck JTC with what sounds like a gruelling training plan. A trip to NZ sounds like a nice reward, though.
