July 2010 - the World Cup has come and gone, soccer has a new champion and the world has a new soothsayer in the shape of Paul the Octopus. Time to turn away from the global and focus on what awaits me in my near future.
Taking stock reveals the following: 1 July saw Russ and I celebrate our 21st wedding anniversary; I'm in the middle of doing my Masters at UWC (another manic decision that is squeezing me in some very interesting ways!); work is as challenging and rewarding as ever; I haven't lost a kg since March and I also haven't had any significant exercise (barring a few random visits to the gym). In short - it is time to make a stand and declare my intention regarding my onslought on the 2011 Pick n Pay Argus Cycle Tour ...
Yup, I WILL be attempting the 109km around Table Mountain again in 2011. Yup, it WILL be on a hand cycle ... again. Yup, I WILL be raising funds as a Chaeli Rider in support of the work we do with differently-abled children. Yup, I AM crazy!
Today is 13 July and Cycle Tour 2011 happens on 13 March - exactly 8 months to go. I'm scared ... so much to do - so little time. I have to start getting out on the hand cycle to get some miles on my arms and I also need to lose some weight so that there's less of me to drag uphill by my arms. Watch this space - it promises to get interesting!
