Some of it is cycle trails. It goes past my late grandfather's house at 150 miles and my parents' house at 200. 9 months to get training

ROAD :) :) :)

(I've already looked. I'm not fast enough even on road to make the cut off on that race.)

Damn - that means I won't get UTMB points for it.

I have signed up to do something described as a tough 4 day cycling holiday in 4 days. Just without a bike.

Should be some amazing scenery as it goes through Snowdonia, Elan valley and Brecon Beacons. Not the flattest though.

It'll be gorgeous. And yes, premium cycling terrain.

thanks Chris the Puma..I seem ok and have done a fifty mile week with a two hundred mile month likely now. Hoping that the episode was "just one of those things"..hospital though that a combination of factors contributed to my crashing. (I have a heart murmur so a bit of an irregular heart beat, naturally very low BP..won't bother with the "etc's" !!)

Glad to hear you are ok torey but do take care. Admittedly I am in a bit of a glasshouse saying that...

Thanks Dave...I'm running a lot with friends since "the episode" and have tucked away sixty miles since it happened so feel optimistic.
