Wet week...

Lots of swimming - which is good - realised how flobby my arms have got! Haven't swum much lately. But not much else. Didn't manage to get my act together today to go over and recky Helvellyn bike route as planned - got up earlyish, given I was decorating til 2am - fully intending to go and packed - but one son still flat out, and room only half done - and other, who was coming with me, would've been so bored..so decided not to go. Aswell as pool and sea swims already mentioned, did good nearly mile lake swim Thurs - well, good in that I did it..then also sea swam Sat lunch time - which was really amazing as we were joined by 2 seals...

cyclospeed - when? lost all sense of time lately...over weekend - not yesterday, so probably Saturday.. about 40 mins -

MOnday 17th ish Aug 09 5.30 - 7.45ish- longish hilly bike, 2hr 12 min 18secs - over to Lemmington Bank via Rugely moor road - down main Lemmington bank road, kept going to end, left onto A697 at Whittingham cross roads, along main road with views across to Thrunton, nice evening light, left on to Rothbury to Alnwick road - fast as slight decline - fun - then steep climb (10%) back up to meet left turn back down Lemington Bank main road, which I took, but went left at bottom this time and climbed back up back Lemington bank road (more that 10%) - made it again, then retraced back same way on Rugely rd etc. Felt good.
