It's about time to get my 'behind' in gear, I have a couple of weeks to go until the Watford 1/2 Marathon and still have the Ballbuster in March. I started well with a run to Clapham Junction on Monday. failed on Tuesday (it was raining) picked it up on Wednesday with another run, turbo session on Thursday and run again on Friday. Saturday I rested and Sunday I had a great ride about 60km with Phil. We got lost, my dodgy navigation! Lucky we both had GPS on our bikes. Unlucky neither show your position on a map! A quick call to Phils wife Kim and we headed off for someplace that I thought was heading south. But no, it was the right way and soon we were back in the country lanes. I left Phil at Holmewood and headed back along Punchbowl lane, Pixham and back up Boxhill. Overtook 2 people at the bottom of the hill, sucked down an energy gel and did not look back. 1/2 way up the first of them overtook me and then near the top the 2nd overtook me as well. Ahhhhhhh, what do you have to do to keep going up hills?
