Poker. She'll love it.

Woke up yesterday with a funny feeling. I couldn't quite work out what it was.  Checked my pulse.  75.  Checked my blood sugar.  5.6.  Checked my bottom. Still there.  Turns out that I'm not feeling ill.  It's been such a long time, I'd forgotten what it was like to feel, dare I say, normal.

So my excuse for not doing any triathlon training today is......

Well, actually, it's almost half-decent.   I won a poker tournament*.   It took a very long time.  Longer in fact than an Olympic distance triathlon.  And if you ask me, just as tiring.  Actually, there are quite a lot of ways that poker and triathlons are similar.  For example, poker is a mix of three key ingredients, luck, skill and psychology.  And.... OK, that's all I can think of right now, but that's because I'm exhausted from my triathlon, oops I mean poker session. 

My excuse for tomorrow?  Pub quiz.
