Miserable Climate

How stupid is british weather? I wake up this morning and it's raining heavily, then for about half an hour we get a rest from the water, until yet again the heavens opened for most of the day. Such a shame since I need to get some miles in quite badly before Sunday's race. I did manage to get an hour of ultimate frisbee in yesterday and today, so a bit of running at least. I still need to get my rear mech sorted on my road bike, it's not liking top gear, which is kind of important for a sprinter no? I'm going to be putting my new smaller 11-23 cassette on for the race too.

I'm going to try and get out tomorrow, although I haven't seen the weather forecast so that may put me off. I spent a long time yesterday stripping and cleaning the bike so going out in the wet and dirt is not an attractive option.

I'm glad that in a little while I'll be back in beautiful Lincolnshire and in full training swing with my home club, Lindsey Roads, which will be nice since I haven't seen a lot of them since the end of summer last year as I was ill most of christmas break so didn't get out on any club runs. I've got 7 weeks now though until the BUCS national road race so I'm going to have to make a cunning mixture of endurance training and high intensity speed training. We'll see how that goes I guess...
