A mixed week,mint even bothered weighing. Sent home on Thursday with heavy cold, nose streaming, eyes looked like I had myxomatosis. A day in bed with vic vapour, hit fluids and radio 4. I still got up and led a group ride on Saturday, applying the science of " symptoms in the head get out of bed, on the chest take a rest "
Manned up and did 55 miles, at a leisurely pace compared to other weeks.
Now to work on Eulogy for funeral just 6 weeks after my mo in law.... Gonna be a tough week and next week. Sleeping pills tonight kicking in... Night night.

Here we go again... Friday
Red B. 2 eggs on 1 slice ordinary white bread with butterly type spread and syns , 2, for brown sauce, 8 syns?
L. Chicken thighs with skin removed , large salad, baby beetroot, healthy options cottage cheese, Encona pepper sauce Snack Miuller lite cheesecake yoghurt, 2 syns ?
D. Sirloin steak , jacket spud , salad to come. Beautiful. Homemade coleslaw , 2 syns for salad cream, mixed with yoghurt. 2 syns for mustard.
Really trying to get back in the groove. It's difficult as we are spending time between 2 properties, exhausting even icy in laws farm is only 4 miles away... It just interferes with my normal routine. Plus my youngest has reduced her training hours to concentrate on A levels so I'm not taking her to swim squad training in Wednesday , therefore missing my midweek run at the moment. I know things will eventually sort themselves out but it is v challenging having a compete , enforced change of domestics.

Saturday
Totally off plan. Did 83 mile club bike ride down to Rye.
B. 2 eggs scrambled. Home made energy balls, raisins, pitted dates, glacé cherries, walnuts, unsalted peanuts, porridge oats all blitzed in processor. Rolled into balls, then pressed into flax seeds. Wrapped in tin foil for ride.
Tough outward leg, way above a sustainable average speed for the total riide. Riders dropped off, lost. 1 bottle of isotonic.
Elevenses. Cafe stop, scrambled eggs on toast, black coffee 1 sugar, 2 energy balls.
Homeward leg was much tougher ,into strong head wind. I cramped at 68 miles , fell off the group I was with and had to poodle. Then had an issue with Garmin, missed the second cafe stop! Had electrolyte tablets in water and an egg sarnie, plus energy balls and a v small packet of haribos. Was really feeling wiped out at 72 miles.
Got home, absolutely finished! Bath. Then nesquick chocolate milk, a pear with muller lite banana custard no fat yoghurt, and large slice of spelt bread with peanut butter.
D Cooked a beautiful chicken biryani for 6 people when my legs could hold me up. Popadoms, naan cut up, mint and yoghurt, onion cucumber and red onion raita.
Phew
