What? Why? How? (sticky)

Hello and welcome,

Thanks for dropping by. I set this site up to track my progress towards the completion of my 2012 challenge. I'm aiming to travel 2,012km in 20.12 (appx) weeks in the gym or on the road. You can sign up yourself (or find out more) at this website.

Early on in the process I realised that the distance I would be covering would get me from Bristol, UK - where I live - to the outskirts of Rome, Italy. So I've been tracking my route along the way following this map.

I hope to raise a bit of money for Habitat for Humanity in the course of this - there's a justgiving page for that purpose. There is no obligation on anyone to donate - for me this is more about the process.

Ooh lookie

Last night on the bike was a struggle. I think that all of the miles may be catching up with me. My body crying out for a rest.

So it was with little enthusiasm I completed the distance chart and I didn't really pay much attention to it other than to get my rather lamentable 15k registered.

However, looking at my chart in the cold light if day, I notice I've just passed half way :-) . So even with a week off for skiing, I'm still on target to hit 20 weeks (averaging 110k per week at the moment). This may drop a bit as I take a day or two rest but I don't mind too much.

As I hurtle towards Switzerland it feels hard, but I have the impression that I'm through the worst.
