Milton Keynes: National Champs or National Disaster?

I'd opt for the latter.

All the way to Milton Keynes with my Ma & Pa playing at gypsies for the weekend. The caravan was out in force but would I be?

After a very cold start to the morning things warmed up. Having tarmacced a few drives and sold some lucky heather, it was time to get down to business. I had now sorted the heart rate monitor alarm issue of Swindon and was running under the desired heart rate. Unfortunately it was so slow that I got stopped for curb crawling by the MK Feds.

The bike wasn't too bad but I was so far behind the superfast runners that I caught them so late in the race that they passed me on the final run. The bike wasn't all "honeymoon between my legs" as I once heard it described. The power readings were low the heart rate was high and the performance was average.

All in all, a long way to go (again) for a below par performance. Had I won some cash we could have bought a transit van had some chromium plating fitted to the caravan.
