gavonskype says: whats up crazy ? lets do a quick interview, I’m struggling for blog material

Fraser says: got given one of those Compex things … u seen them?

gavonskype says: I heard they can do a 2hr run for you too !?

Fraser says: well, not found that function yet …

gavonskype says: Any truth in the rumour Faris al Sultan has banned the use of skins in Abu Dhabi?

Fraser says: Absolutely! … rumour has it –  it is ITU rules but there are change tents in transition?!?!  to change out of what i say!!

gavonskype says: change into speedos ??? I heard he also made a rule saying everyone had to race in speedos ?

Fraser says: not seen that one, but the rule which states the drafting zone is 12m is another gem pulled from nowhere!! Oh, and that a 5min pen will be given for ANY yellow card given … basically we envisage everyone but @£$% being given such a card

gavonskype says: oooooh, am i allowed to quote you on that in my interview !?

Fraser says: for sure ;)

Fraser says: however, the fact that the draft distance behind a lead vehicle has been clarly stated is a good thing, although it is only 35m?!? …

gavonskype says: Just get to the first selection point at 130km ! and then to the second selection point at 160k . . .

Fraser says: and then the next one at 180 ….

gavonskype says: If Rasmus is still about at that point everyone is in trouble !

gavonskype says: You wake up and its a rest day – would you rather wake in Stirling, Aberdeen, San Diego or Stellenbosch ?

Fraser says: Oh … good question that one. I reckon San Diego … its never too hot to ride after 10am there!! and the suntan isnt so harsh ;)

gavonskype says: even on a rest day your going riding !

Fraser says: But the Shire in May is also pretty good for kicking back

Fraser says: lets go Shire for rest days … San Diego for other days and Stellenbosch for mid Xmas and New Year festivities

gavonskype says: lets just go to Vida in Stellenbosch i say !

Fraser says: done

gavonskype says: what was the last interval session done on the bike ?

Fraser says: 5hrs with 3*20mins TT / 10mins easy spin – 160ks ….

gavonskype says: and interval run ?

Fraser says: 3*2k reps with 2mins recovery jog, 18k total

gavonskype says: mmmmmmmmmm lovethat

Fraser says: and swim???? – 400/3*200, 400/ 6*100, 400,12*50

gavonskype says: you put the paddles on during that swim didnt you !?

Fraser says: yeah … for the 400s … you got me

gavonskype says: you going back to Triathy in Ireland this year ?

Fraser says: its potentially on the cards but nothing is finalised unfortunately

Fraser says: could be in Kansas ….

gavonskype says: when was the last time you woke up with a sore head ?

Fraser says: sore head – eh, i actually rode 3hrs last Tues morn with a thumperr for some reason, it cleared eventually

Fraser says: anyway … i’m gonna have to shoot fav – hows the glute and did dondo smash it?

gavonskype says: indeed Dondo did smash it at the Global 11, I jogged today . . .

gavonskype says: Be careful riding for 3hrs with a “thumper” too
