Training Tip No.1: Share the work with your children !
Training Tip No.2 :When children not available use pets (hopefully your pet is more active than misty ) |
In the first two weeks of February I will be joining a group of cardiologists and health professionals, donning lycra in place of lab coats and spurning the stethoscope for a safety helmet , as we embark on an epic cycle ride that will cover the length of New Zealand. |
