In the words of the late and much lamented V Meldrew Esq, "I doooooon't belieeeeeve it!
Only 6 weeks until the big event and no matter how hard I have trained / am training, I still can't help but have the odd nagging doubt about whether I'll be able to complete this challenge, probably something to do with the pork pies and Stell....err, bad weather we've had for the last couple of weeks.
I am having my third monthly fitness review in the morning and hope to hear some positive feedback from the fitness staff at Chartham Park as to my progress.
Since my last post on the 7th March, I have been maintaining the work outs at the Gym and, in general, been watching the calorie intake. Having said that, my friends have been really supportive by continually leading me in the direction of the pub whenever Chelsea are on the box (which appears to be weekly at present) and I will admit to having partaken in the odd amber throat gargle!
I've also been out for a few decent rides on Sundays and have some real testing rides booked in between now and "The Big One", so I thought I'd use this forum to put up the dates for forthcoming outings......thankfully these will be on the new Trek that arrived last weekend, rather than my dear old MTB which I have pretty much wrung the granny out of!
I would welcome any suggestions / invitations for the gaps in the diary. Please email if you know of any good Sunday rides....
