an exhasting weekend

I did my third evening of Ceroc dancing last night and can really recommend it as a way of keeping fit, meeting new people and having lot's of fun - I'm really enjoying it.
In my quest to add variety to my fitness training, I decided to get back into mountain biking after a 5 year break. I met the gang at Epping Forest at 9.30 yesterday morning with trepidation and boy, was I right to be nervous. Getting over logs, riding on a camber, through dodgy ditches and all those technical challenges I used to do with a certain level of confidence all seemed very scary to me. We only did about 12 miles but mentally I felt like I had done 20. I'm going to go out on Saturday and Sunday next weekend to see if I can coax that old confidence out from where it's hiding within me. Wish me luck!!!
Have a great week.
Leigh
