Firstly, we need to say thank you to the everyone who supported us, Clare and Kerri from Iain Rennie, Richard from the Fitness company, the local press and radio who covered the event, everyone who came by to say hello and encourage us and, most of all, our wifes – Jana and Katie, who suffer on a daily basis with our training.
The row itself was a fun, if somewhat demanding, day. I soon realised that the best way to deal with it was to go to my happy place and zone out. I sang songs to myself, tried to recall poems I had read and made mental list of things I need to do in the coming few weeks. The kilometres soon zipped by.
The day was broken down by small milestones – Ali bought us some jelly babies, I had a long hot shower, we ate some cake and we watched the daily ebb and flow in the gym.
When I finally got home, I had a long hot bath and then cuddled my son on the sofa. We both woke up around 2am and I had to wake my wife up to take him upstairs as I was so sore.
Today, my arms are a little sore and I am tired but I am ready for training again on Thursday
