Started last Thursday, and will be using the 'Four and One' method, not to be confused with that tasty fast food eaterie I pass on the way home!
Basically cycling Monday/Tuesday, shirt and suit run on Wednesday in car, then cycling Thursday/Friday. I was worried about my body keeping up, but just smashed my best time on way home there and averaged 14.75 miles which is good for me!
Anyway, the problems that have crept up are:
1. The need for organisation. It takes a bit of organisation, pre-planning and effort to keep this commuting show on the road. Laundry night tonight to get all 4 shirts ready to go tomorrow. Gee wiz.
2. Sleep. My day runs half 5 to about 9pm, 8.45pm last night. Basically I get halfway through an evening then fall asleep. Has killed TV time with my wife and any possibility of doing any paperwork in the evenings.
3. At about 3.20pm I was knackered and crabbit! Not good in a job where patience is a must.
4. I don't have any energy to play golf. I love golf.
However, on the flip side, for 2 - 2 1/2 hours per day, I am exercising and absolutely loving it!
Just hope I get used to it.
