Ireland

It's cold here and wet, but there you go.  I've been on two long walks today, taking the dogs each time across the... well, if they were in the UK, you'd call them moors, but it isn't quite as grand.  An hour and a half for the first walk and about 45 minutes for the second.

It's good to be back in Ireland, seeing the family.  My Dad's sick, which is a downer, and it's probably hepatitis A, which is better than the things we were thinking it could be.

Training wise, what have I been doing?  Well, are we sitting comfortably?
