I was aiming for 6km but at 3 was close to a corner so figured I'd ride to that and that brought it up to nearly 4. That got me thinking that if I rode 4.5km then turned around that would give me 9 and that would be good. Then I thought if I could do 9 what's an extra k? so I rode on until the speedo hit 5km, turned around, realised how far away from home I was, how lots of black cloud had come over, how sore my legs were getting...Rode home and while I was glad to get there I was pretty chuffed that I had done the 10km and hadn't fallen off and didn't feel as bad as I thought I might. Go team!!
Pleased that I did it though and should do it more often as the scenery up there is so much nicer that the corner walk. I do have to drive to get there but if I incorperate it into a run with the van then it could be done fortnightly.
So well done Barb! Wow, 10 km that's such a great achievement.
ReplyDeleteLove your photos and, yes, how nice to walk in such beautiful surroundings :D)
Hi Susan. I think it does make a difference with wanting to walk. I don't do the corner walk anymore as it was so boring but if I did this a few times a month...If I wasn't so against driving I'd do it a few times a week!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are well.
Barb.
