Garmin Connect

Solna, Sweden 5k

| Richard

Tricky run this evening around the Hagaparken: chilly and a tight chest (tree pollen or asthma maybe?)

We have also bought some Garmin Index Scales which are wireless and mean we can track our weight individually direct into Garmin Connect without having to use a watch and then upload from there; much easier.

Talking of which, my weight is down 0.4kg since the start of 2019.

Barcelona Treadmill and Gym Bike

| Richard

Went to the gym before breakfast at the H1898 and found the treadmill was occupied by a walker, so whilst I waited I did a stint on the bike.

Then I was too hungry to run to far – plus Mrs RHM had finished her workout – so just a short treadmill run.

To celebrate being 57 years old, I decided that trying to run along La Rambla for the H1898 hotel was going to be nigh-on impossible, so I did a treadmill run before breakfast instead.

Six Weeks In

| Richard Morris

After 3½ weeks of travelling – Poland, Costa Rica and the USA – it was time to ride to work again, especially as today the Brompton was due its first 6 week service courtesy of Evans Cycles.

Sadly, they’ve told me that the issue I’ve had with changing gear from 5th to 6th – i.e. using the two external derailleur chainwheels – is because the chain adjustment derailleur assembly is defective after less than 50km so I can’t collect it today as they’re going to have to source and replace it under warranty.

Hopefully I can collect the Brompton on Friday.
