Knowing that Tom P. would be strutting his stuff today in sunny Spain I thought I would re-ride his Gran Fondo but this time without my son looking back with a "where are you?" look.
But I added a couple of climbs - as you do - so 35 miles, 3400 feet.
That takes me over 2000 miles so far this year which is around 200 lower than last year at this time but I have done three times as many foot races, which must count for something. One of these was Whittle Pike last Thursday, always a favourite when I was in my prime and still a favourite in my dotage since I was First V75.
Fell running eh? Can't beat it!
