6 Jan 2008: Amy's Birthday Party!
Sunday morning, a time most people take it easy - not going to be like that for us today...
Clare was up till late last night finishing off Amy's birthday cake, ready for the party - I think there are about 18 five year olds joining us at Coconuts.
Out for mass at 9, party at 11, back home for 2pm. Phoned Lawrence - agreed to do a ride next week rather than meet up today - I want to get out in daylight!
Got out about 2:30pm, lights charged (just in case!). Used the heart rate monitor for the first time. Not toally sure of the route I am going to take, head off round the rig-road, south to Sawbridgeworth, out to Hatfield Heath, through Hatfield Broad Oak (nice little village, went past a cyclist who was taking a break, only for hime to pass me about 5 miles down the road!), on to Takely, and then back along the old A120 towards home. Google maps informs me this is about 21.7 miles.
Got home the living room is full of wrapping paper and opened birthday presents!
21.7 miles; 1hr 26mins; Avg HR: 160; Max HR 176
Total miles for the week: 43.7 miles - happy to have started!
