Wee Update

Been far too tired to write the blog, not like me. The charity ride really hurt me. I covered 50 miles in just under 4 hours which was far too fast. Come the early hours of the morning, my left knee went and I had to stop. Tried sleeping for 4 hours but was still pretty bad so I gave up. Managed a metric kilo so not complaining.

Wasn't able to ride for a few days after that.  I have been told to try Rouvy as it is more realistic.  Problem with Zwift is it feels more like a game.  I'm finding the downhills don't really match what it is like and it does not give me a chance to stop pedalling and take on fluids.  Rouvy was a complete game changer.  I rode a virtual route in Japan and it was simply stunning.

So far this week, I have just done a spin to the docs for bloods.  I have 2 site visits (tomorrow and Friday) and SNCL on Sunday so my cycling time this week is going to be limited.  I am really glad I am 150 miles ahead on target this year!  Hopefully I can get back on track next week. 

 Totals for the year 306 miles and 7,631 feet of climbing.  HVR is back above 50 so I am happy
