I finished last week feeling a bit under the weather and apprehensive of going out Friday night and riding with JS on Saturday morning. As it turned out they were both good, I did well on the video horse racing and won lots of prosecco and got quite "tipsy"...
I was definitely not looking forward to riding with JS, he only knows one speed and I was not up for that. However after trying to back out he promised we would have an easy 100k, which was exactly what we did. JS actually enjoyed it and it was exactly what I needed. To get out, enjoy it, push but not too hard. I was tired after but not wrecked. The ride felt good, I ate some dried fruit while out and felt like I had a bit more energy.
Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning I made great headway in sorting the garage out. I can now use it and access my wall mounted bikes.
Sunday afternoon we had out "Old peoples tea party", not the official charity name. It is a charity that Lucy supports and she puts so much work into the day, they all really enjoy it which is lovely to see.
By the evening I was pretty tired and feeling quite low and wanting a good nights sleep ahead of work, unfortunately with 4 in the bed by 01.30 that did not really work out that well.
On Monday I took my bike into work in the van so I could ride it home......well that didn't work out either as I took the wrong shoes with the wrong cleats. Although this thoroughly irritated me the extra rest may have helped.
Tuesday I was determined to ride so I took the road bike, lovely day clear skies but a bit cold again. Felt pretty good and I pushed a little harder but was a naked ride with no HR, Power or Strava!!!
I have been making an effort to eat better meals but I am also eating a lot of nuts and quite a lot of 90 chocolate. That said my weight seems to have stabilised at about 76-77kg and my ketones are back about 0.40. My Metrics seem pretty stable too, I will try and record them on Thursday.
