Back in the saddle

Made it back to class today.  My knee and leg is bruised so I did pace myself.  So I didn't go as high intensity as I can.   That's the thing, knowing your body and being sensible about it.   It's very important I keep the training going, both physically and pyschologically. 

I think the "fear factor" may actually be about to kick in.  That fear of failing, and fear of falling.  I know I'm not going to fail though.  And a quick skim of the cycling book that arrived yesterday, sort of instilled a lot of confidence that I have been preparing, and I am on track training wise - there are significant improvements I can make though.  The two being: strength training (that will help with the core and weight loss) and mastering my gears.  Those two things are probably the two biggest things that are going to make a difference in my time for Taupo.

Arnica though is a magic homeopathic cure.  Magic.

No parcels in the mail or "courier bin" outside my door.  So tomorrow may be more exciting.
