Change of scene

It's great when you get a change of scenery and yesterday and today we headed off for an over night followed by some mountain biking.  I'm new to MB but the uphills are a great workout for your legs, especially if chasing your son to the top, and the down hills are a pure adrenaline rush.  We attempted a red run and I can see how it improves your bike handling skills as you head over drops, rocks and worst of all slippy tree roots.
But I started the day with 2,000 m in the pool just to keep with my programme.  My gym session will get moved to tomorrow which means it will be a busy day.  1 hr bike, 1 hr run and the gym session I missed today.  My next event is a 16 mile run a week on Sunday so the focus turns to my running next week.
