Note
(injured)
Tried to go out for a short run before travelling back to the UK, but my knee was really sore. It was absolutely fine yesterday, so I'm a bit confused. Maybe my road shoes aggravate it? Anyway, I think it's time for me to accept that it's not just going to go away, and that I need to get it sorted out properly.

Running long 1:38:00 [3] 20.9 km (4:41 / km)
shoes: Asics Gel Sensor (8.5)
Went for a long run through the forests near the chateau. Route. These forests are where the German front line got to during the war, and as it was a misty morning the run had a bit of an eerie feel to it. Spent the entire run on tracks through gorgeous forests, enjoyed it lots, and the time just flew by.

Road biking 52:00 [3]

Spent most of the day visiting Chantilly - chateau, gardens and stables. They've got a massive labyrinth in the gardens so raced Emma round that. Then as the weather was so beautiful I popped out for a quick bike ride before tea.

Road biking 1:37:00 [1]
shoes: Asics Gel Sensor (8.5)
Went to Pierrefond castle in the morning, which is where they film the BBC 1 programme Merlin and had a wander round inside and outside. Then we visited the place where the Armistice was signed in 1918. Not much to see, but still pretty atmospheric.
Had a late afternoon cycle ride with Emma. Nice and gentle.

Made it to the gym in time for the full spinning session. Legs a little tired from yesterday but not too bad.
