Enduro Training - two days to go!

I'm finally back home after two fantastic weeks stopping with Lucy and the girls. It was a whirlwind of homecooked dinners, bike rides, Pokemon, homework, waiting for the bathroom to be free, and having my knees licked by MontyDog.

I still managed to ride a bike every day and even took Lucy out to Cannock Chase. My diet was crap - but that was all down to me and not Lucy. She was very restrained while I gorged myself on ice cream, chocolate cake and rice pudding.

I've arranged to go for a ride with Solihull Cycling Club in a couple of weeks' time so that I have something to focus on after the race: I don't want to go back to a 'couch and XBox' lifestyle with every weekend lost to drunkenness.

Anyway, today:

Breakfast was muelsi with semi-skimmed milk. Lunch was ham and cheese rolls, two oranges, a banana and a small flapjack. Dinner was two huge chicken breasts with green beans. Then I had more muesli cos I was hungry.

I did a bike ride after work. I took the mountain bike out and really went for it. It really hurt and I aimed for the biggest hills in the area:


Not feeling nervous about the race yet, but I imagine that will start tomorrow.

I'm 10st 6lbs.
