No running again today due to blister, so went out on the bike and headed for the greenbelt area between Cov, Birmingham and Tamworth.... probably a little too far south-east/south-west for Marco and AnthonyKay to be familiar with, but headed up towards Kingsbury and then Coleshill, before turning back east.
Was a strong wind today, appearing to be hindering me whichever point of the compass i was facing.
24 miles and around 1000ft climb, 1hr49
Did pass the same lycra-clad cyclist in the opposite direction on two occasions, so obviously it was his training loop... no doubt he was less than impressed with my attire of RonHills and a running base-layer, not to mention my 20 year old bike.
Reached the heady speed of 31mph. Also took a fairly sharp corner at around 25mph which frightened the life out of me.
