Last Week

I played rugby as extra training on Thursday, and happily avoided death or maiming.

As for food yesterday. I did have a large roast dinner, a number of cakes/biscuits/etc, a Malaysian dinner for my evening meal, cheese toastie and i think something else i am forgetting.

I have already had 4 bakewell tarts after this mornings outing (oh and some biscuits, plus i had breakfast beforehand naturally).

Pie eating is the key to success

Spent the day eating excessively in order to build up energy stocks for the potentially tortuous week ahead - roast dinner and 3 desserts set the scene followed by much cheese and in the region of 6 cream cakes for tea. Beat that Braithwaite! Training in between meals included a 'power building' nap mid afternoon.

The Sunday Ride

One horseman short of an apocalypse: Dave & Messrs Barber & Braithwaite. Lovely scenery out Toft way; but rather short excursion (1 hr, about 15MPH) due to Dave feeling like some inexplicable vom-action. Oh Dear... (And I haven't been drinking, especially not last night)

Body flogging this week

Only managed a rather paltry circuits and Rugby match in addition to the outings this week. this was due to my battered state after last weekends activities.

New Knees Please - 26.02.05 - Dave

Ever the best idea...

6840m, 1:58.0 at R22

Apparently sleep-talked a conversation with Mark last night where I was told the outing was off...

Tuesday: Rugby Match

Saturday: Rugby Match

Training - 20.02.05 - CB & Dave

Mr. Braithwaite and Dave, The Sunday Ride

1hr35, 25.33 miles at average 15.9MPH. Probably less than UT2...

Interesting conversation as usual, clicking noises from both bikes; snowed on the last half hour or so. Sillyness at the Trinity May Ball queue on Sidgwick.

DcL

Just an experiment in using Hello. Hope this works!
