24 weeks to go.....

Weighed in this week

Weight : 103.5kg (1.7 down in two weeks)
Target : Lets not talk about that

Miles last week 107
Longest ride 67 miles

Things are at least heading in the right direction, though whether 20km into the 40kmh wind at the end of Sunday's Audax qualifies as 'right direction' I'm not sure.

There was one sign of progress however, as I spent a straight 10km 'pounding' out between 20-24kmh into the wind with other people being towed by me. Hopefully, this role reversal means that I'm getting better.

108km in cycling time of 4:45:00, although the elapsed time was somewhat longer owing to a brush with the local wildlife (The Fox at Great Barrington)

Planning is afoot for the Summer's new toy, watch this space.......

Your sibling has found the answer to your weight loss problem. It involves a nasty stomach bug whereby for 24 hrs anything entering the digestive system is immediately flushed out, either from the orifice it entered by or a lower one.
It does interfere somewhat with work but the regular need to run upstairs is good sprint training.
I'm sure she would be happy to package up her germs and send them to you if you want.
