Brecon Beacons

The Likeys boys and girls organised a training weekend up in the Brecon Beacons, it was a good excuse to get out in the hills and test my new tent.

Day 1: 20 miles or so, some very steep climbs, took it easy but felt fine

Day 2: 20 miles or so, some very steep climbs, felt good until the end of the last big climb when i became alarmingly tired and disorientated, really really struggled until a couple of miles from the end when i seemed to pick up a little. Hopefully the gastroenteritis that raised it head 2 days later will explain my sudden and dramatic decline.

Great weekend, good to catch up with the Likeys boys and girls and to have a nose round their store room, most of the attendies for training for the MDS and seemed very well prepared....
