Total Distance Travelled: 720kms Days to holiday: supposedly 169
Days in Lockdown / New Normal : 137
No Shred tonight, as the girls are having day-off work. Usually when we don’t do a Shred / HIIT session, I go cycling to make up for it, but today it’s so hot. They girls recommended I should still go cycling, – practice what it would be like to cycle in heat and humidity, but I took one step outside after work and decided – nah, this isn’t for me.
Then I had a thought – how the hell am I going to cycling in Cambodia. It’s not exactly cool there either, even though I chose to take my trip in what is effectively their winter; but the country is so much closer to the equator, their winter might just as well be our summer, and then some.
The truth is I don’t do heat. I’m starting to have doubts about my decision to take a cycling holiday.
That said, when you’re on holidays it’s different – I’m going there with a different purpose, and it’ll be fun; and I won’t be doing loops around Battersea park for 3 hours straight. Chances are the cycling in Cambodia will be far more reasonable than me.
So, no cycling today. No exercise.
Just sitting on a sofa with a widow wide open, sipping on iced water, and counting the days till this heat subsides.
