I feel like I'm doing well at the moment. On Tuesday I played football after work. It was on a bigger pitch than usual and there was a lot more running involved. I was really tired but it's amazing how you manage to keep going when there's a football to chase! Maybe if I could get a football rolling in front of me for 5k I might be able to get my time down a bit!
When I got home from football I changed into my cycling stuff and got on my bike for 21 minutes. By the time I was finished I was absolutely shattered and felt like collapsing over the handlebars and eating and eating and eating! Turned out I didn't need to eat the whole house (including bricks) after all and a plate of pasta was fine.
Last night I went on my first real bike ride since I started training. I think I'll need to do another 3 weeks at least on the turbo trainer before I start to feel like it's making a real difference.
