Update: 21 wks...

Weight: 14st 5.4. BMI: 28.7. Body Fat: 25.3%. Body Water: 51.8%.
Wk 22 Training: Hours: 7:53. Bike: 158k. Work: 6,391 KCal.

On the training front it was a weird week for me, with a Rest day on Monday and not managing to fit in any training one day, come Friday I was feeling pretty disappointed with my weeks work. However, I managed a 1.5 hrs Richmond Park ride on Saturday and then a 4 hour (60 mile) ride into Surrey on Sunday. Reviewing the stats it has turned into the week with my highest number of miles (98), 2nd highest hours (7:53), 2nd most calories burnt (6,391 KCal) and I also did a good 5k piece on the Erg.

As for my weight, continued progress this week which is positive. The other stat that has been dropping is been the fat% (from 29.1% to 25.3%), this is important as the object of this weight loss is to lose the excess fat while maintaining muscle mass that is needed to power the bike up mountains.

Good skills, Rick - keep up the good work! Where do you train for these sort of mountains? Can't think of any monster hills in Surrey...

"40 individuals visted your blog last week"!! I can only imagine they were attracted by the thought of you cycling the etape in the gorilla suit shown in your profile. At least, I assume that's a suit.
