Note

Sick :(. Woke up feeling pretty bad with a cold.

Had a bit of a sore throat yesterday and felt a bit snotty today, but not too bad so set off on ride as planned. Rode through Bruce/O'Connor ridge towards federal hwy, then up hwy to the centenary trail and followed that to hall and back home. Didn't feel great for first 40 mins or so but then was fine. It was hot but I enjoyed it.

Body b class. Was great, one of my favourite mixes and lots of hamstring stretches.
