Operation Don’t Die: Update.

The bike is still in working order and the cycling to work has been continuing fairly steadily for 2 days a week most weeks. Still doesn’t seem to be getting any easier. In fact, there is a bugger of a hill that I used to be able to manage but can’t seem to conquer at the moment (for those of you familiar with my whereabouts geographically, it’s the hill that leads up from Oakengates to the Domino’s Pizza roundabout). It’s annoying that I’m not noticeably getting fitter.

I suppose it doesn’t help that I’m really not a morning person. I stay up too late and resent having to get up. When you include a 4-mile(ish) bike ride up some pretty shitty hills before even starting work it doesn’t improve matters. I suppose I should do even more, but by the end of the week I tend to be so knackered (not just the cycling, but everything else as well) that there’s little room in the weekends for it.

I guess I should just keep on keeping on though – it’s got to be better for me than not doing it, hasn’t it?
