The adventure begins...
Saturday, 20th October morning was the best I've ever experienced! Things only started to get bad when I woke up. What was going to happen? Would I be forced to cut the grass or pick up all the leaves? Potentially even put my washing away! I soon realised all of these would've been better when I was taken to my garage and told to pick up a bicycle. If there is one thing I've learned from that morning, it's that you should not attempt physical exercise in your jeans and you shouldn't continue the same exercise in the same jeans for the next 6 weeks!!! (Definitely not what I did!)
Distance covered: 8 miles
Duration: 2 hours
