I added just over two extra miles to Nicky's and my "mile and a bit" again, which gave me a total of three and a half miles this morning.
Got out on my bike, to get to and from a client appointment, for about four miles after a misunderstanding about who needed the car. I really enjoyed it even though it started drizzling pretty much as soon as I left home. Putting aside all environmental arguments, I prefer being on the bike than in the car apart from in extreme weather conditions.

Cut the fat, cut cancer risk
Did three and a half miles this morning, for the first time in 10 days. I really enjoyed it.
It's also been great bombing round T Wells on my bicycle today going to coaching sessions, and a school governors' meeting this afternoon. It was so warm I only needed a shirt and a gilet, which was great.
Another "Born To Run" quote today is "one in seven cancer deaths is caused by by excess body fat" according to Dr. Robert Weinberg, a professor of cancer research at MIT and discoverer of the first tumor-suppressor gene. "The math is stark: cut the fat, and cut your cancer risk."
Now I know that this applies largely to diet, but exercise will also play a huge part in reducing body fat.
