It's amazing how quickly your mood can change!!
I went along to the Sunday of the Big Heart training weekend slightly trepadaciously (is that a word, and have I spelt it correctly?!) for various reasons.
1. They'd all cycled together on the Saturday
2. They must have bonded
3. They'd resent me for not having done the 50 miles on the Saturday
4. I might not be fit enough to keep up
5. Etc, etc, etc
When I arrived everyone was getting their bikes sorted and just waiting to get off again, so I sorted myself out and tried to just 'hang out' near a group of riders and join in with their conversation. It seemed to work ok, everyone was very friendly and it wasn't too long before I felt part of the group.
The ride itself was very varied. Quite a few hills, up and down and plenty of the Cotswold countryside to view as we peddled along.
I feel so much more ready for this adventure now. Especially having spoken to a few people about what to take and what to expect. My fitness is ok too, although I really need to make sure I keep it up and up it as much as possible over the next 5 weeks.
I think I also need to get some drinking practice in between now and then, as I think it might be a heavy one!!!! Roll on Sinai!!
