Back into light training and roll on 2010

Just a quick update.

Well both my knee and my mood have improved a lot since the last update.
According to the physio my knee tracking issue appears to be fixed and I am now into the rehab rather than treatment. This is good news! I am allowed back on the bike and in the pool, but running is out for a little while yet. I only have one small painful area left which appears to be down to a build up of scar tissue, but it is not causing a major problem.

To celebrate being allowed to train again I have entered my first event for 2010. The Hell of the Ashdown cyclosportive on the 31st January. 110km with 2000m climbing over 6 hills. Should be interesting, in 2008 they had mild spring like weather whilst last year blizzards were the order of the day.

So it looks like this winter will involve some outdoor riding rather than last year when all training was indoors. Better get thinking up some novel schemes for keeping the feet warm. Any suggestions welcome!
