Action 100 Cycle Ride

Having worked on the PR side alongside the volunteers who annually make the Action 100 charity cycle ride happen, Claire Thompson (otherwise known as Mrs Page) has committed to getting fit enough to ride in 2006 - its Silver Jubilee year. That's 100 miles from Bath to Chobham and it's going to hurt - lots! "This is my leap of faith and a public declaration that I'm doing the ride - without it, it would be way too easy to chicken out."

Action 100: Expecting to hurt

Well, after yesterday's ride I expected to hurt today, but I've only felt the odd twinge of used (rather than pulled) muscle.

I've kept on the move and haven't, apart from sunburnt knees contributing to a really poor and patchy leg tan, got any real war wounds to show for my troubles.

My sister Louise seems to think that aching knees could be a sign of trouble, but they don't hurt enough for me to be concerned. They're only creaking a bit in protest when I put weight on them (climbing stairs, for example).

So now I'm planning next weekend's ride. Shame I wasn't ready for the London to Brighton last week (or was it the weekend before).
