We're all capable of so much more!

Sunday started with a battle.  Ali's dynamos are top of the league and were playing their nearest rivals.  They came back from 3 - 0 down at half time to draw 4-4.  After that I relaxed over the next 3 hours on a 71km bike ride without my buddies - a lot of the training needs to be done on your own to get the mental side right ( I know you think it's all mental!).  My focus is getting enough protein and carbohydrate in me during the ride so I will be able to complete the marathon as after 112 miles I may have dipped into my reserves.  Getting the wrapper off the protein bars can be fun while dodging the pot holes and the car drivers.  After that the kids wanted to play golf so off we went for 9 holes - don't ask who won!  Next week will see the training reduce to get ready for the Etape on Sunday.
