While I am writing up that last race of 2014 its worth bunging up a quick entry about life off the bike.
If you follow my Strava feed you may have noticed a run of late evening Sufferfests scooting across the dashboard. This is due to starting a new job after 13 1/2 years.
The new job offers promotion, growth and stability but with a major downside. For a long time the mainstay of my training , namely good tempo , skill sessions, woodland rides and intervals rides have all been done at lunchtime. The new job wont fit in with that. While cycling ( commuting and the training) was a major consideration, with things in perspective though, its the right thing to do.
Going to struggle to retain fitness in 2015, but I will do my best.
