Countdown to the world 70.3 championships

With just 5 weeks to go until the biggest race of my career the countdown has begun.
I'm just begining  my final 4 week training block before the taper for the world 70.3 champs in Las Vegas.

I will be flying alone to Vegas on the 1 September to prepare and aclimatise for the race on the 9th.
My local bike shop Larkfield cycles have very kindly semi sponsored me with a brand new Trek speed concept 9.9 frameset, I've recently built this up with full Di2 electronic groupset. 

As the weather has been so nice recently I've been doing all my training on my new bike to get it set up and exactly how I want it. Over the past week I've managed to clock up over 700km which has given me plenty of time for tweaks and adjustments, the bike is almost ready now for Vegas.

I've been doing some non wetsuit swims recently and only been about 1 minute slower than with a wetsuit, which has given me a massive confidence boost as Vegas is a compulsory non wet suit swim.
