Rejigging the schedule

The sunshine in March seems a long time ago.  I hope that any hose pipe ban is now on hold due to the deluge of water that has fallen from the sky over the last few days and that the reservoirs in England are overflowing!.  I was going to have a 2 hour bike ride before my son's football match tonight but it was cancelled due to a water logged pitch and I decided that my aching limbs could do with a rest - and I didn't fancy getting wet again and catching a cold.  So I "listened to my body" (no point in picking up a late injury) and phoned my coach to rejig the schedule.
So tonight I will have no cycling and replace it with an extra long stretching session.  My calf muscles are protesting and they need some TLC.  The weather forecast for Sunday isn't looking good especially as I was aiming at a 6 hour / 100 mile cycle.  So I am switching that to Saturday which is meant to be better.  I will do my session today on Sunday and if it is too wet I will substitute it with a turbo session.
I will shortly be writing to all my pals trying to raise money for my chosen charity; Maggie's Cancer Caring Centres.  As you know I am dedicating this Ironman to Neil Sutherland whose story is on the blog.  If you can spare some cash to an amazing charity then go to www.justgiving.com/derek-stewart0 .
