Bike went ok.

The bike was a struggle but over all I managed to keep my average above my goal and got in a good distance. Originally this should have been a rest week. Now I understand why as this has been tough. A fairly negative report follows but overall I did well.

Well what a mixed bike. I was cruising into the wind at an average of 17.5 until about mile 25 I hit a wall of wind. God I'm tired of this, its gusty and never stays in the same direction. So 12 miles of podding along and then I gave up and turned round. I can honestly say I nearly gave up at mile 30. So as I had a head wind all the way down you would think I would cruise back? Nope. A few miles and then back to crappy headwinds and side winds. (I nearly titled this "I'm done with this ***t).

By Mile 50 I started feeling bad. It turned out I forgot to take my Blood pressure and Arthritis pills. Marvellous. I made it back though and kept my average above 15mph. So a small victory.

So tomorrow is my day off so I cant stack up on food tonight. We are off to Boo at the zoo tomorrow and then out Trick or treating later. So I took Monday off for the long run and swim.
