NO LOVE HANDLES ALLOWED!

'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.' Theodore Roosevelt 23 April 1910

Feeling Tired - Must Rest


Woke up this morning and felt really tired; legs were aching and a general lack of energy. I was supposed to be doing a 2-3 hour road ride but despite the good weather I binned it. I took the dog for an hour's walk in the park, had a good breakfast and then slept for another hour or so on the sofa - clearly my body needed more rest. A quick look at my training diary showed I hadn't had a rest day for 7 days so that sealed it - feet up and enjoy a day off.


Took the boys to see the new Indiana Jones film this afternoon - really enjoyed it.
