Swim squad was tough today. 5,000m main set and I was hanging on for dear life. That's how you get faster.

Physiotherapy session today. Taking care of the body is a full-time job. Hamstring is responding well to treatment.

This sport teaches you so much about yourself. The pool, the road, the track — they don't lie. You get what you put in.

Not the result I wanted, but plenty of lessons learned.

Swim: Solid. Got into the front group and stayed there. Nothing to complain about here.

Bike: This is where things went sideways. I went too hard on the first climb trying to stay with the leaders, and paid for it in the second half. My power dropped significantly in the last 30km. Need to be smarter about pacing in the mountains.

Run: With the bike effort catching up to me, the run was about damage limitation. Walked through...
