An Easier Week

TOM:
This weekend saw a change to the previous weeks with the team concentrating on their cycling and taking things slightly easier than the previous three weekends.
On Saturday, five of the team (Alex, Ceri, Stu, Becky and me) took a gentle cycle down to Exmouth and back. This round trip of about 22 miles follows the very picturesque tow path along the Exeter canal before going through Topsham and then the final stretch along the estury into Exmouth. When we got back to Exeter, Stu and Alex called it a day whilst Becky, Ceri and myself, motivated by the fact that on day one of the Mission in August we will cycle almost 80 miles on top of the 15 miles we'll eb doing on foot that day, carried on for another hour and stuck in a couple of hills. A very enjoyable and relaxed morning's training compared to the last few weeks!

Sunday saw us take a break from any physical training as we spent the day with the rest of the DecAid team working on our event. The main thing we concentrated on was planning our recce which is going to be happening this April...watch this space for more details....
