I’m gradually building up my fitness again. Gradually is the operative word here. I’ve been trying to get out on the bike a couple of times a week at least but feel like I’m going to have to up that to daily. I managed twenty miles today without feeling absolutely wrecked but I know if I take another break for even a week I will be back to where I started in no time at all.

At least now Spring is on its way so it should be easier to convince myself to go out. It actually felt quite warm in the sun so maybe the weather will help. I could always blame my age for the reticence but I know (and not even that deep down) it’s laziness. I’ve got too used to sitting around over the winter.
