Sunday 3 July 2016
The TV weather broadcaster said on Friday that there was no
sign of any settled weather over the next few weeks!! Given that this week
seems to be very changeable, very dull, overcast and chilly when the sun is not
shining and that seems to have been the pattern since early June, I am not sure
all the expensive computers in Exeter are telling us much. So we have to put up
with it, we can’t blame the EU, we can’t buy another model, we can’t switch it
off or on. It’s a shame as its lovely running or cycling in the warm sunshine
and the summer is so short anyway.
The Bikeability this week we managed to escape the heavy
rain and only got slightly wet on day 2, the children always enjoy it when we
are out in the rain, it’s just us Instructors that don’t like it! Must be an
age thing! Or we have just got boring!!!
The Tour De France started yesterday with Mark Cavendish
winning the stage and the yellow jersey, a good start to what looks like a good
tour, I think there are a number of possibilities for a winner. Contador not
looking to good after two crashes in two days!!
Yesterday was our Grand Daughters birthday party; she is now
the grand age of 4!! Games, pass the parcel, musical statues and ball pit, 14 other little people in
attendance, party food, chocolate fingers, iced rings, sausages, pineapple and
cheese etc. the twins also enjoyed the event, crawling around etc. AND! A bonus
the M5 southbound was lovely and quiet
on the way home last night.
Two runs this week, 5
miles each so total 10 miles and today a good 32 mile cycle ride with Mike
today.
Total for the month of
June was 35 miles run and 274 cycled, cycle miles down on the 300 last
year, but last year I didn’t run at all
in June.
411 run and 1678 cycled so far this year, so if I can
do the same over the next 6 months I will have increased my mileages over last
year.
I have now also entered a 10 k road run in Plymouth in
October, so more training for running. October I now have 3 events . Only a
month to the off road Jurassic 10 k at Bridport and in between the 100k Devon Delight
Audax
Have done this before, quite tough ending though over
Dartmoor.
Nice steady week ahead, no Bikeability, a little twin
sitting and hopefully some running and a cycle ride.
