Training (!) in the Alps



This week I have mainly been laying down a sub-cutaneous layer of fat for the Dash by eating hearty cheese and potato based mountain food in France, swilling it back with the local wine, and occasionally sliding down slopes inelegantly on skies. 

On the plus side, it turns out thet the muscles you use for skiing are basically the same as those for cycling. My newly acquired muscle mass has paid off and I skied harder than I have in years.

On the down side, I’m two kilos heavier (but much happier) than I was at the start of the week.
