I get asked what I do to relax. Most people see me either
working or training. When do you stop? Are you having a night off? The answer
to both of them is subjective and most likely, in my case, probably not very
often. The definition of either can mean something totally opposite depending
on the person you are asking. What defines a night off or a stop? I love what I do, it’s a routine. I
still love to have a few beers and enjoy what most others do too; like food, TV
and socialising.

| Cap de Formentor, Majorca - 2014 |
At the start of June I spent a week holidaying in Majorca.
Chilling out, enjoying the sunshine, with great food and a few beers. Oh and
hired a bike. You can’t blame me really. Fantastic roads, scenery and weather,
meant it was fantastic to be out and about. This was by no means a training
holiday though. The week was used as relaxation. A week which fell straight
after an important race and two weeks before the next. To me, this was a
perfect time to go. The activity kept me ticking over but nothing too strenuous
to tire me out. I rode for the enjoyment of cycling. It was nice to be on the
bike for the love of it and not because I was racing. There is a difference;
trust me.
Long story short, I trained; lightly. I relaxed; fully. I
ate; a lot (what’s new?)
Whilst away, I took a few videos and photographs to show how
I like to relax. Hopefully you’ll enjoy it as much as I did in real life.
Thank you for reading and in this case watching. I hope you enjoyed it. Something different. Next up, an important race at Rother Valley Triathlon.
See you soon,
