Today we did 65km on the Aberdour circuit, 30k with the Ironman and a further 35Km when we were joined by 'The Fit One'. It was another cold north easterly. Even 'The Fit One' hardened to such climatic conditions and sporting fingerless mits, was heard to declare 'it's freezing'. However it did not deter the Ironman or 'The Fit One' from pummeling up the Aberdour Ascent as if the last pint of beer in Fife was waiting at the top. It was only a mirage in the fog that hung around the hill. There was no beer. Only the quiet reflection time whilst they waited for my arrival safe in the knowledge they had set new personal bests.
An impressive climb time of 04:35 minutes. I will need to up my game as the Caledonian Etape, otherwise known as the end of the begining, beckons 4 weeks on Sunday.
Whilst the Max HR was stable at 169, the average was down at 124. Conclusion on the school report card reads - could do better. To end on a positive the weigh in post cycle was 13st 13lb. A first for this year.
