16 MILES?? A cab back from that far on Christmas Day will cost a fortune. :***: :lol:

Dietary requirements for exercise Since altering my diet and getting my blood sugars, weight and BP down a bit, I'm feeling much fitter. OK I'm not Mo Farah, but in the new year I intend getting back on my bike again. I'm gonna take it easy and make sure I have water and my wrist watch heart...
