Today is 16 Oct 22. Time to review the purpose of this Blog - again! It is 2 years since the last review. 🤕 2022 was shaping up well and I was on track for a decent middle distance Duathlon race. Then COVID hit me! I tried to salvage the race season but never felt strong or healthy. Looking to 2023 now and focussing on being healthy and some sprint Duathlon racing mixed with some bike TT fun on the Canyon CF

Injury, Byee FB and Le Tour






 As normal, I’m not too happy to be struggling with injury. Over the years I’ve had numerous niggles -  some worse than others. This niggle is something I remember having previously. 


However, my recollection is that I managed to just run through the problem. This time, I continue to feel the dull pain when walking. I have not ran for 4 days now. The fact that I continue to ride may not be helping. My cycling training load has had a massive increase over the last 6 months - take a look at the last year according to Strava:



The massive blue blocks from March onwards are mostly cycling sessions since lock down on Zwift. So Lots of the sessions are Really intense. This is probably the prime reason for the injury. Next week I’m going away with Jueby for a few days - no bike and no running. So I’ll just take the instruments of torture for rehab


Today is the start of the 2020 TDF. I love watching this event and I have find memories of seeing the race live in 2010 when we visited Annecy - yearn to go back there but with COVID travel restrictions it is too risky. I will have to carry on pretending I’m at Le Tour whilst in my garage

Nearly forgot, stupid FB locked me out. So I try to reset and FB wants a photo ID - passport or driving licence. That’s isn’t going to happen! So byee FB. Can’t be doing with the invasive nature of this social media thing. Who needs it anyway when I have this Blog! Only thing is, I’m now the only one accessing the Blog 8-)   Good for posterity in years to come.  Maybe my girls will read my adventures and have something to remember me by.
