So much to learn

I have cycled 56 miles today and reached hotel by 5pm, my legs feel strong but today has been a struggle mainly because of the cold weather. I found myself with a t-shirt, training top and my jacket on but as much as it kept me warm I sweated so much I was drenched after each 20 miles meet up with support team.

The weather forecast is looking good from now on which will make so much difference. But I have to have chat with my fellow heart patient support team as I know they fully understand how I feel, I am honest with them and we have good chat about what we can do. 

What I have learned is without these 2 I wouldn't even have a chance of doing this, we all have DCM but are so different in symptoms and just highlights the point of this challenge. Somewhere out there within this 1st generation of us living with heart failure will be someone who needs answers and the only way to find it is within this heart community.

I know I am so lucky to even attempt this challenge yet I have got so much support from within this heart failure community from people who struggle to walk even 100 yards that I want them to know I love their support and couldn't thank them enough.

The point of my challenge is to show with heart failure we can all still have dreams to chase not what I can achieve.

Highlight of day was cycle last 2 miles with Kyle and was probably the fastest 2 miles I have done he is a very welcome & needed addition to team

Time for sleep
