 Yesterday  I had an appointment at the doctor's surgery with the Nurse for a repeat blood test. I did a water fast from midnight the previous night to see if there would be an effect on my cholesterol levels.

 Afterwards, after a bit of umming and ahhing,  I went to the Greyhound to take on some carbs. 

This evening I travelled to Weston Super Mare to do the 5 mile prom race (7 of 9). I went there with Nick Webb.

Result: I did 39:16 which is 30 seconds or so faster than last month (so a course PB obvs) and Nick did 38:30 which is not bad at all (excellent in fact) for a debut run in the inspirational maroon and white club vest

  Tuesday 28 June (day 2 in Tampere) I woke up at around 7:30 (again). I made tea and coffee and I pottered about for a while. It is already very hot here again. I am doing things like Wordle & Duolingo in addition to my housekeeping. My back is killing me so I made a point of doing 35 minutes of Yoga (by Chris on demand). NB. I suspect the back pain may be due to me transporting my large suitcase which weighs 20Kg. I had to carry it up and down some steps at stations where the lifts were not working. I had bacon, egg and mushrooms for breakfast and sent a message to Kay. I stayed in the apartment during the morning. The ID cards were not available until late afternoon. I had some ham and cheese with salad for lunch. So, late afternoon I headed for the stadium and collected my Athlete ID card. On the way back I called in at the supermarket, I bought two cans of cider, some Pepsi Max, some bacon, some spring onions, and a big bag of crisps. I had an early night.
