What do you do at the weekend?

Training mileages are increasing and we have now cycled 70 miles on at least two occasions. Looking forward to putting the clocks forward and the (hopeful) onset of some warmer days. I am cycling 5 days a week and training at the Gym once. Mark is seeing a Personal Trainer twice a week and will be putting his turbo trainer to good use as we near the event.

The photos are taken near Danbury in Essex and the pub The Cricketers Arms in Danbury was our lunch stop (reccommended). On Sunday 2nd April we will marshalling the Sunflower Run, this is a 10k run/5k walk which is open to all. The event is organised by and to raise funds for the St. Clare Hospice. The run starts at 10.30 an the walk at 10.45.

Fundraising target raised to £2500

Due to the fantastic support I have received so far I have already met my original sponsorship target of £2000, so I have added another £500 to the target.

Keep it coming!
