Today was the end of January. Whilst that's not normally something worthy of a celebration, it most certainly is if you've:
- Been exceptionally diligent in the health and fitness department
- Have an Apple Watch
Yes, hot on the heels of my perfect 7 day badge from yesterday, today brought with it a perfect January badge. Since I had to complete not only today's 40 km but also burn off 600 calories and stand for 12 hours to earn this magnificent bounty I wasn't really in a fit state to fully enjoy it. Well not until I'd had a lie down anyway!
I must give a shout out to my cheerleaders. You are amazingly supportive, even sending me pom-pom waving animations to make me smile! (Thank you Cathy, xx)
In an attempt to forestall terminal boredom whilst biking I've been using my beloved tech toys. I got quite excited today as I listened to the BBC news who reported the results of an investigation to answer the question; "Will exercise make me hungry?" Well, doh! What do you think BBC? I was mentally planning a complete calorie laden feast once I'd finished when they proudly proclaimed that the result of their exhaustive research was that ... wait for it ... "the idea that exercise makes us hungrier is a myth". Dammit! Back to the carrot sticks it is then 😉
Until tomorrow!
440 km done, 1560 km to go.
