Enduro Training Day 2 [late]


Scoffed some muesli for brekkie and then cycled 3 miles to meet Lucy at the Horseshoes pub in Kings Heath. We cycled down to Dicken's Heath for a pot of tea and to slag the place off:



From there, we got back on the canal and headed towards Lapworth. I needed to pull over for lemonade and peanuts at a pub because I'd ran out of breakfast by this point. Then we cycled the eight miles back to the car:



I then cycled the three miles home back to the flat. That's 22+ miles of cycling for me, albeit at a slow pace. Lucy is doing really well at riding and is proving to be really strong at keeping a steady rhythm over the miles.
Remembering Louise's advice from earlier in the week I decided to increase the protein intake today. Lunch was 200g of hummus [with pitta] and for dinner I got stuck into 4 beef sausages with a whole head of broccoli.

On the night, however, Lucy appeared on my doorstep with Inception on DVD and 3 bottles of real ale...

I drank two of the beers and put my feet up until bedtime!
