Cycling Tips

After purchasing 2 bikes in the last 8 months (1 Road, 1 Mountain Bike) I have been learning to Cycle and loving it!

I have come across a few tips from Cycling-inform which I want to share with everyone

What cycling clothing to wear in what weather conditions

What is the best tire pressure for bicycle tires

Five Hydration Tips for Cyclists


As for me, I've been running , Cycling, doing weights but not much swimming as I have a bit of a head cold. Nothing too bad but with Run Melbourne coming up in 3 weeks until the event I'm trying hard as no to get sick.

For me the week ahead is busy with End of Finance Year @ work, but will keep up the training program.

Until next time

Ms Walk Race Report

With another cold, wet day in Melbourne offered a very interesting start to the day.

To be honest when I got there I felt like pulling out, I was cold, very cold but after the Warm up in front of the stage. We all line up wait for a few slow coachs then off we wet.

Yesterday's rain made the course dam under foot, there were some big puddles that needed to missed, few people didn't.

For the firsr 2.5km I held my own no-one passed me but then the fast people came through.

I made it to the line and I looked at the time 25m 09s. not a PB but close.

Overall I finished 47th or 37th Male and 11th in my age group

Didn't hurt too much at the end another done, some 5 weeks to go until Run Melbourne.
