So, we have now finished week 4 of C25K and in-between each run Laura tells you to have a rest day; today was that day! However, hubby decided that we should go on a cycle ride.
I have to say I wasn't much up for exercise today but I was told I would be treated to coffee at a riverside cafe, how could I refuse that so off we went. There was quite a lot of riding on main roads and whilst some drivers are courteous and give you plenty of space, others seem to want to catch the side of their cars on the handlebars. Hubby was at a roundabout going straight on when a car decided they would turn left and had he not jumped off the bike I wouldn't like to think what damage would have been done - needless to say the driver drove off and hubby was left to pick himself and the bike up from the road.
21 miles later and no coffee as the cafe was closed we arrived home for a late lunch. In the last 20 minutes or so of the ride I managed to get really cold and I have only just, some 2 hours later, managed to warm up - maybe being sat in front of the wood burning stove has helped!
Since arriving home I have finished the housework, put away the ironing and washed up - can I now please have a rest! yes
To the fat lady who knocked me off my bike, I hope you had a thoroughly miserable Sunday afternoon, and then I hope you burned the dinner.
