Duathalon done, limped in in 3 hrs 23 mins. First 10k run + 20m bike was 2 hours dead. Last 10k run was 1hr 23mins thanks to my dodgy knee

At the duathalon start point, I am a fish out of water among the triathletes with their carbon-fibre bikes. Last place looks certain.

It's duathalon day!

Spent most of last night cleaning & oiling my bike. Removed approx 1kg of bike gadget detritus. Looks like new. Ready for the duathalon.

The logical progression for all those grown ups who read the Harry Potter series http://onion.com/d7XaiI

Entered the Jigsaw 20:20 event at Dunsfold this Sat 26th. 10km run, 20mile cycle, 10km run. Sponsor my running mate http://bit.ly/jigsaw2020

Training tonight was hard, 20k bike ride up and down some really big hills immediately followed by a 10k run. Hurting..

Haven't run successfully for weeks. Considering doing the 20:20 10k run/20 mile ride/10k run with my mental friend Darren this weekend. Mad?

Still in a bit of a funk, maybe several hours of zombie killing will help cheer me up. Last weeks session was a bit of a disaster.

Happy Fathers Day to all you lucky Dads out there.

Despite the apparent serenity of the last update, I am feeling sociopathic volcanic aggressiveness toward everything (well.. only mammals)

Sitting with Son3 on my lap, watching him watching the itunes jelly visualiser while listening to DeVotchKa - http://blip.fm/~s8lz8

Gary Coleman is dead! What'choo talkin' 'bout internet? Seriously, am I the last to know / quote in slightly bad taste? RIP Gary.

Feeling pretty lucky that my family avoided the chaos in the South of France. Thankfully my inlaws (who are in that area) are safe and well

In Guildford the other day, heard "The Momeraths" busking. Utterly BRILLIANT! I was really impressed. Even bought a CD, my new fav band!

Haven't updated for a while, been away in Nice with the family which was fantastic, before that I had a chest infection, not so good. Back!

Had a really great time at the pub tonight with the lads.

At surrey county show today. Son2 loves the novelty of having my mobile scrawled on his arm so much, he keeps trying to get lost on purpose

Only just realised it is a bank holiday weekend. Seriously. My home worker "colleague" Darren did not inform me.

Purchased 5 pairs of trousers and a hat today. It rained. One for the memoirs there.

Son3 did his first step today. I am in the pub to celebrate.

Son1 (5) told my wife he wants to go to University to learn how to make "Metal Robot Monsters to destroy the world". He is so cool.

I can't say I recommend the "getting very ill" diet. 4.5lbs lost in just over 2 days, according to my clever scales - all of it muscle.

Still feeling like death, so I am off to see the doctor.

On the sunniest day of the year, Just managed to crawl out of bed. Feel bad. I think this is worse than man flu, I think it is real flu :(

I think I have run myself down. Feeling feverish, not good.

My wife's surprise birthday party was exactly that. She didn't have a clue. Great to see all my friends in one place. Thanks for coming all!

Up early making a birthday cake for my wife

Must see movie of 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyiwoG4Is_I&feature=player_embedded#!

Happy Birthday to my mate Darren on his 39th Birthday. Have a good one buddy, here is an apt song. http://blip.fm/~qktpt

10k race today, kept up until 12:30am by son2, up at 4:30am with son3. Can hardly stay awake. Race starts in a couple of hours, not happy.

Busy weekend planned. Looking forward to everything. 10k race on Sunday.

Working on some "Match Moving" 3D stuff. Very complex, it has taken me 3 hours to get 10% into the process. So frustrating, hope it works.

I wonder if Obama regrets calling Cameron a "lightweight" after he first met him? Probably not, the man seems like a good judge of character

30km of cycling + running and I feel fine. Even had a bit of energy for some weight training. What is wrong with me!

Just finished massive bowl of pasta, off on a 20km ride + 10km run in 10 mins, Happy Severe Intestinal Discomfort day everyone!

20K bike ride followed by 10K run tonight, big question is, will my knees explode? Place your bets.

Damn you ATI. Selling eyefinity as working on my card, reality is I have to buy a displayport adaptor. NOT HAPPY! Back to nVidia next time.

This site ages your portrait photos by 20 years, bloody good fun and slightly upsetting http://www.in20years.com/

offered to do dinner tonight, typing this while walking to the chip shop. Discovered 3 monitor eyefinity gaming earlier, goodbye reality.

Laughing at my wife getting more than she bargained for on the pirate ship at Chessington. Ha!

I have a sneaking suspicion that my friend Darren is planning a 20 Mile bike ride before our usual 10+km run tonight. Scared to ask.

I intend to spend tonight drinking wine and watching the alternative election results on channel 4. If you're bored, pop round, bring wine.

Great commute into the office today by bike via 11 miles of canal path. Swapped angry morons in Landrovers for Mandarin ducks & great views

Mumism of the day: Sorry I haven't called but I have a sore knee.

Just entered the ballot for the 2011 London Marathon, for some reason.

Got to love t k maxx, 1gb mp3 player for a fiver, shame there is only one left

This might have been a bad idea

Having fun in the wet at Chessington today. Pretty much everything is open and it is quiet

What a strange world we live in where newspapers publicly and proudly announce their lack of political impartiality. Did we vote for that?
