Big Woody - The Results & Newsflash


From MW: In the standard Cowman format, BW results breakdown below – my analysis has led me to the conclusion that Pughey is a bit of a T2 specialist. 

I also looked at what I did to prepare for it since 1 Jan 2012:

I did a total of 149 sessions split at follows:
Swimming
37 sessions (25%)
Running
66 sessions (44%)
Cycling
46 sessions (31%)

On a time basis I did 208 hours split as follows:

Swimming
32 hours (15%)
Running
61 hours (30%)
Cycling
115 hours (55%)

Separate to this I did:

-          166 cycle commutes (94 hours)
-          Gym 43 sessions (40 hours)
-          Other (rugby, touch etc) 10 sessions (11 hours)

[As you can see, MW has a lot of time on his hands. My total training - not divvied up - was 320 hours and just under 5,000km's since mid-March]

***NEWSFLASH***

MW received the results of his MRI scan today which confirmed that he has two ruptured discs at the base of his spine. Prognosis TBC but my recommendation off the back of this is not to do an Ironman when you have agonizing back pain. Sounds like he was blo*dy lucky not to do more damage.
