I woke up determined to make an improvement in my training after being rather embarrassed yesterday.
Healthy brekkie and then on to the mountain bike to have a blast around the park with MontyDog [3.7miles]
After this I got on the road bike to do a long ride on an empty stomach. At the halfway point I allowed myself to eat the one (smashed) McVities biscuit bar that I found at the bottom of my rucksack. Unfortunately, Sportstracker went bonkers during the ride [top speed of 41mph?] and missed off the middle 5 miles of the ride. According to the bike computer the ride stats are: 37.55 miles at 12.9mph with a top speed of 25.7mph.
I was very drained by the end of the ride and found it a little difficult to walk afterwards. However, I know if I keep riding like this, and then adding on the miles, my fitness and speed will improve.
At home, I snacked on peanut butter and pitta and then Lucy fed me loads of healthy stuff. I then spoiled all her hard work with a Rice Krispie cake and beer!
