See me exercise!! :o)
I beat Hell Hill last night *Yay* I stopped for a breather at the bottom, then started up, I made good use of my gears and managed to get to the summit before having to stop and catch my breath again...the important thing to note here is that I DID IT!! Under my own steam and didn't die :o)
It was a really good feeling and I free-wheeled down the other side with much giggling (and wind, plenty of wind) to share the good news with Red who was at Rosies garage. I suspect I look a real sight on my bike, t-shirt and shorts, stripey socks and trainers, then to cap it all I have my mp3 player on and a blue flaming buff to a) soak up the 'glow' and 2) stop the wind whistling in my ears and giving me earache.
The only thing I haven't managed is to a way to stop all the huffing and puffing giving me such a dry throat that I cough for a good half an hour (not continuously) after I'm finished. Breathing through my nose is not an option :o(
Well, I'm still rather pleased with myself, I'm also staying in Notts tonight so no opportunity to repeat the feat (poetry ahhhh) until Weds and then only if the weather's good. I don't do outdoor exercise in the rain :o)
