I’m back in the alps, this time it’s Davos in Switzerland for the next month of altitude training. I got hereĀ  two days ago so I’m still checking out the lie of the land (which is either up or down). Davos seems like a nice place and as you might know from a previous post of mine, the best looking cows in the world are up here in the mountains. They are just so pretty.

I met my Dublin parents in Zurich airport when I arrived. Anne had been out cheering on Nick, who had just done his first Ironman. Well done Nicky. He put me on the train to Davos and gave a packet of Taytos, telling me that they were only to be used in an emergency when times get tough.

I’ll tell you all about my new squad and the pretty silky smooth cows during the week when I move into my new place.
