Mike’s Middle Distance Magic: Green, Green, Green
This week I’ve really been on a high, absolutely smashed this week and am really proud of myself how its gone! My long bike on the Sunday was great, it was the first bike ride I’ve done outside for about 5 months and I did the full 3 hour session. I completed this ride with a friend which always helps.

Well I had a mixed bag but I’m looking at the positives!
