This was the first time that I had gone along to the early morning ride with the Cardiff Tri team. Helpfully it was the "beginner" session so I was hoping for a nice easy pace whilst I try and continue to build up my endurance.
Had a great ride and surprised myself that I managed to go the distance without suffering too much fatigue.
Managed to notch up almost 70km today which is a big shock to me, although now that the tiredness has set in fully, I can see that its going to be a long road to improve my aerobic and muscular endurance in the cycling.
Struggled a bit with hills today but found I still had energy at the top to push through the flats.
Will need to take a trip down to the cycle shop to pick up some emergency provisions to carry with me (spare inner tube, pump etc) for forthcoming rides.
It was only a small group of four of us that went out this morning, but I was quite happy with that.
Overall, definitely a positive experience and already looking forward to next week.
