Down With The Sickness

Ugh... So, this is what a smoker feels like: shortness of breath, constantly feeling the need to cough, not being able to climb stairs (or, cycle even) without stopping for a break!!

Zero Times!!

Unfortunately, I've caught a little cold that has travelled down into my chest along with a dry cough, which isn't the best thing to have while training for a country-long cycle!
I struggled to cycle those 8.16 miles tonight, every time I got into the Zone I had to stop to catch my breath, to cool down, to do other un-lady like things like choke my lungs up! So not cool and very very unproductive!
But, I managed to soldier on, not successfully mind, but I managed to do something significant! I have to get back up to 12 miles or else I'm not going to progress at a speed at what I (personally) would be happy with!
On the plus side, the last of the Christmas Roses are nearly gone!!! HALLELUJAH!!! Still having the sneaky few, but its broken up over 8-10 hours and not 8-10 mins!

Now, if you fine ladies and manly men would excuse me, I've got a half portion of Thai Green Curry w/rice and green beans waiting for me, along with a coffee and an evening of YT-subscriptions to catch up on!!!
