her longest cycle ever and other stuff!

Evenin all!

Wow! I'm bloody shattered, just sat in my garden enjoying this bootiful late summer eve, watching the fluffy little white nice clouds drift ahead.

I have a small glass of wine and the chicken is in the oven, went for the healthy option even though today is eat what I like Saturday, I liked chicken.

So today consisted of, my last Saturday Boxercise session for the summer, a new lady turned up and she was great, sad to see the Saturday session go for a little while but glad of the training time for the triathlon, and flaming hell do I need it?!

I came back from Boxercise, downed another prot shake, put on my running gear and did a cheeky 3 and a little bit miles as fast as I could. The problem is I am now a plodder of the highest order! I do long and slow (heehee) so I am having to get my sprint legs on if I'm gonna do 5k in the tri!
I did it in about 26 mins, route round Dartington Hall, ok and said Hi to some cows on the way round too!

Came back, quick shower and change into the only stuff I have to cycle in, running gear! haha

I currently dont have a road bike so I had to make do with my cheap second hand mountain bike!
And off to Diptford to the Village Fair where South Hams Martial Arts had a stand.

7.75 miles in 43 mins, hard work, flipping eck it was hard and that silly hill before you get into the village, I got off the bike and ran up with it, it was faster!

Got to the fair, bought a burger and a drink as I was starving! And did some kicking and stuff, got chatted up by some really old guys, which was nice!

And then off on my way again back to Totnes, 7.45 miles in 32 mins on a mountain bike on the roads!

I have to say, that is the furthest I have ever cycled! You see, a triathlon was never in my plans not just because of the swimming but also because of the cycling! One out of 3 aint bad I guess? haha

Back, showered, napped for 5 mins, back on the bike to the Steam Packet to see Amy, who I haven't seen for flipping way too long and back home!

Which is where my blog started!

Now waiting to speak to one of my favourite people on the phone after way too long! (28th May)

Have a great evening all, I'm sea swimming tomorrow! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!
