Sun pm Exercise Bike 45 mins. Was tempted to go for a run but decided instead to watch a show I taped, so got on the bike.


Good progress is occurring, 3 key workouts all achieved. Darlington Half next week, won't really taper so not sure what to expect, I want to keep the momentum gained over the last couple of weeks for a few more if possible.


On a separate note I'm shaving my head for Leukaemia on Thurs so if anyone would like to donate, it would be much appreciated, details are below.

I’ve set up a CSG team to take part in the Leukaemia Foundation's World's Greatest Shave 2010. The funds we raise will help the Leukaemia Foundation to provide practical care and support to patients and families living with leukaemias, lymphomas, myeloma and related blood disorders.
