Sunday 11th August 2013 to Saturday 17th August 2013

Sunday 11th August 2013
Back from Wales and time to get some training in.  Did a steady 11 miles in 2hrs 4mins.   Okay it's not fast but it's all I have time for.

Did a ton of jobs round the garden, washed the car, watered everything.

Monday 12th August 2013
Got Phil up at 4am.  Back to bed.  Up at 6am.  Took Lily out.  Fetched papers walking wee dog a bit at the same time.   Into work for 8:30 all good back in the groove by lunchtime!   Legs are a bit stiff after yesterday to say the least! Load of gardening when got home - tied down the beans which were flapping about in the wind - same for tomatoes - have been very good on the food and drink front - need to be for next Sunday.

Up early doors to get Phil up, up proper at 6am.  Took dog out to do her business then up town to fetch papers.  Cycled in to work from Belper - 47 minutes for 10.25 miles on the Urban Mountain Bike.  http://www.strava.com/activities/74305995 - shower at work then weetabix for breakfast.

Went back through Ripley which involved a 4 minute climb up Butterley Hill and a load of new route exploration.  A few times I overshot a turn or had to have a quick look so it took a lot longer than I'd have hoped for - also one bit was on a farm track so it's going to need a change or two for the road bike!


Wednesday 14th August 2013
Had to get home early so no Cycle2Work today and not looking good for Thursday with wet weather predicted.  So took some kit with me and went to Gym for first time since November 2011.  Was okay but the treadmill packed up on me twice - maybe I'm too heavy.   Went to visit Lynne Riley in Eckington and then visited Hollie Majthenyi in Belper.  All good.  Watched England play Scotland - great to see Rickie Lambert score at 31 on his debut (or dayboo as they say in Australia).  Put 1.5lbs on while holiday so that's a result but am carrying too much weight at the moment which will be greatly highlighted on Sunday.

Thursday 15th August 2013
Up early with dog.  Wet though and she wouldn't go further than the Church so not much mileage in the bank.   Into work early - lots to do.  Did another yum session - cool!

Friday 16th August 2013
Dad's birthday so dropped a load of stuff off on way to work.  Work, gym, home.

Saturday 17th August 2013
Ashbourne Show - Lucy showed Lily in the Terrier and Puppy classes and she got a 'Special' award rosette! Cool.



Picture from out of the Ashbourne Stunner - the fox terrier with the chap in the cap won it.
