On Friday afternoon, I did two hill intervals. The first was up the A40 to Stokenchurch (5.47) with tail wind. The second hill was up the 5 mile ascent from Wycombe to Stokenchurch the other way. It took about 16 minutes. The ride home from Stokenchurch is about 20 miles. I must have got cold after the hill intervals because I developed a permanently runny nose. The runny nose didn’t stop for about 12 hours after the ride. I thought I might have caught a cold, but a runny nose was the only symptom. Today, I cycled to Long Hanborough and did 2 circuits of a hilly time trial circuit. Quite slow but felt fine. Looking forward to the start of the racing season which is coming soon.
Often at this time of the year, the temperature can drop quite sharply after 4pm. When I set out at 2pm it was warm but later on it is was pretty cold. I should have worn more wicking layers.
