I did 9 Miles on Saturday and my legs felt knackered but my head was in a great place, so I'm happy with the training. I got a late call on Saturday to see if I wanted to go to a lecture by a guy who had cycled round the world. It was a free ticket so thought cool. My wife gave ma a pass and I was off. It was just simply amazing. The first speaker was David Allan who has been involved with mountain Rescue great book available on Amazon! he had some great stories and it's realy cool to listen to someone who is passionate about there life and profession

Then there was Alastair Humphreys if you ever get the chance to see his lectures you MUST go. He is a true adventure. He managed to get all the way around the world on a bike took him 4 years there abouts and his talk is funny truthful and very very entertaining. check out

I was truly inspired one of the highlights for me was in the quesions and anserws they guys were asked if there were any adventure left in the world. Alaster's answer was if you had not done it, It was and adventure for you. Genius! not to mention a walk around the M25 just crashing in a tent along the way!
And if you ever get the chance see both these guys!! What a great weekend!!
