I went for a bike ride today, and it was one of the hardest cycles I’ve done. Not because it was long – it was 52km in total, and today was the third time I did it. The second time I did this it was easy.
It was hard because it was the first major exercise I had done for three weeks. I did an 83km cycle on Christmas Day, and since then had been to the gym twice and done a normal amount of walking, but that was about it. And I discovered that three weeks is enough to lose fitness.
So, in the 45 days I have before I leave Sydney, it’s going to be back to exercise five times a week.
Jen you should try some leg exercizes to get some strengh and do other Cardio training some days as you dont need only bike riding for your big ride. Happy trip
