It's all a bit odd really. For the most part, I'm feeling reasonably cheery. In that there's a bunch of stuff that I should probably worry about, but worrying won't fix any of it, so, um, stincle. Previously I would have been near catatonic with fear, thus unable to work during the week and boozing heavily at the weekend. (And the bits of weekend ( Read more... )

I fear so.

I imagine that most people work it out for themselves if they get past the third week of any exercise regimen, but I tend to worry that I'll end up sounding like an over-enthusiastic PE teacher:

The getting to the 3 weeks point is my problem at the moment. I started cycling a fair bit then moved house and stopped for a while. Just starting cycling into work every other day again this week and cycled at the weekend, need to keep it up now to see the benefits. At the moment I'm only seeing the feeling knackered bit!

Yes. I lost several weeks to Easter/Whitby/Lurgi/Holiday and had a bout of 'Oh bugger I can't be arsed', 'I'm still bringing up green gunk maybe I should give it a miss' and 'I feel horrible, exercise will make it worser.'

All lies of course. I burnt off the lurgi and the feeling horrible. It's just the lard to go.

I was thinking about that.. but not sure I'd enjoy riding in a huge crowd of people, I like riding to get out in the countryside and get some peace and quiet... For a challenge I was thinking of doing the 13 mile route if any..

Riding down the Portway while it's closed to traffic is nice
(admittedly more so if you're at the head of the 50 mile pack).

R and I were wondering about doing the shorter version of the ride.

Yeah, every time I get a bit better at the exercise lark, I wake up feeling like I've been hit by a bus for no apparent reason, and have to start from scratch again. Most frustrating.
