Enduro Training Day 5 [late]

After a two egg omelette on wholemeal toast and an apple I did a mini-workout:
80 push-ups, 70 tricep-dips, and 75 sit-ups followed by some dumbell rows [23kg] and dumbell curls [15kg].
I had some oatcakes and hummus after this, followed by muesli and soy milk.

By midday I was bored, by about 1pm I was on the bike:


During my ride I helped two pairs of lady cyclists in distress: I changed an inner tube for the first pair and then got my Allen keys out for the handlebars of another. Chaps, if you have any single mates advise them to go cycling on the Stratford Canal and take their tubes and tools!

I had my iPod with me and the following albums got played:
Neil Young - Harvest
Neil Young - After the Gold Rush
Neil Young - Zuma
John Fogerty - The Long Road Home
And then I switched over to my 'sports' playlist containing various upbeat hip hop, drum & bass and heavy metal to get me home. The most effective track being this:


After 37 miles, I felt extremely hungry, and, in the absence of flapjack, scoffed 3 veggie sausages, a yellow pepper and a head of broccoli.

Then, dudes, I came to join you at the Red Lion for two pints of lovely ale and to listen to terrible 80s tunes.

At home, Lucy and I tucked into cheese and biscuits, with another ale and a bag of crisps for me!


I'm going to be very fit and very fat at the same time. Is that possible?
Team B for the win!
