What a great day it's been Very Happy

The suns shone here all day, but the winds been blowing a #*!$#@$

I'm on holiday this week and so are the kids, up here in Scotland. I went out for a bike ride today with my 13yr old son, he rode my old road bike. This was his first attempt at riding it, as up until now he's been riding a mountain bike. I couldn't get him to come back in the house Laughing He loved it.

We did a 1hr ride around about the local area. 14 miles, my Avg HR: 122bpm.

Tomorrow's a planned 30min run. We'll be doing that together too, but as usual I wont be able to keep up with him.

Isn't it funny how I hate being beat at anything sportswise, but with my son, It makes me happy to lose to him Smile

Not sure where I've been lately...

I'm not sure where the last 12 months have gone.
The 11th July is when I last posted. I can't believe that Confused
My old body acting up has wiped 12 months from my training plan - yet again!
But now I'm fixed and up and running again, so...

Where did that weather come from?

I went out for my planned 30min run last night and couldn't believe the number of trees and branches lying out on the country roads.
My original plan was scuppered as the route I normally take is along a stretch of road that's lined by big old trees.
No fecking way was I running along there, last night, as half of them appeared to be lying on the road.
Turned around and ran along a nice open road instead Shocked

Time: 30mins
Avg HR: 134

My first bike ride for a little while...

Thought i'd better dust down the bike, pump up the flat tyres and get my arse into gear.

Result:

Time: 30 min
Distance: 6.2 miles
Avg Speed: 11.2 mph
Avg HR: 93bpm

I'd forgotten how much I love cycling Very Happy

The reason for the VERY LOW HR is due to being on beta blockers for the symptoms of an overactive thyroid, diagnosed about 2 months ago. Now getting this under control so should be stopping the beta blockers any day now Very Happy

Goal for today (Saturday) 1hr bike ride

I've been reading the many IM Race reports on the forum and so impressed by everyone.
