All in another days training
So people ask what type of training do you need to do to cycle 1400 km in two weeks, well I don't really know
, not having experienced this type of tour cycling before. We did attempt 100km a few months ago in a day, and didn't like that, due to the cold and the rolling hills across the South Downs, so haven't done much cycling since then, the occasional 10km to and from work and that's it. However, we have kept up the running, and Erika completed her first marathon today, over a very tough trail course at Bewl Water in Kent. Flat to undulating is what it said on the tin, hilly to mountainous was the reality. P.s I did the half Marathon for support, and trust me that was more than enough. But the worrying thing is .... Erika got lost on the course and ended up running 44.5km instead of 42km... Only Erika !!! Well you can guess who is charge of the map reading thru Asia. So next week we start the bike training!!! You may say its a little late, and you are probably right, but what the hell.
