I haven’t managed to cycle to work once this past week due mainly to the amount of things I’ve had to do after school (Parents evening, governor training session, school training session). This did however give my legs a chance to recover from the 5 hours I spent wandering around the hills in the Peak District last Sunday carrying a 35lb rucksack. Another one of those impromptu challenges that wasn’t on my original list of 30…
I have done quite well in making progress on a couple of the books I’m reading for the 12 novel challenge. I’ve just finished reading The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists which seems eerily prescient at this particular point in history and I’ve not got much left to finish of One hundred Years of Solitude. This particular challenge has brought it home to me how little reading for pleasure that I actually do. As a youngster I consumed hundreds of books a year. Now I seem to struggle to manage one a month. Something I definitely need to work on beyond the challenges 30 year!
