Four 4 a Cure

Gadget fails & training schedules

January 11, 2011 | 9:08 pm

Don’t you hate it when the toys let you down. I had turned off GPS on my watch when swimming with it yesterday, and turned it back on immeadiately before I set off running tonight. Obviously this is not enough … Continue reading

I’ll not make it as a Health & Safety Officer

January 9, 2011 | 1:03 pm

See that.. that’s frost on the road that is… Couple that with a strong wind, and I probably shouldn’t have gone out this morning. Had a couple of wiggles but nothing too bad, and most importantly, nothing when a car … Continue reading

I don’t do anything for ages, then all of a sudden I’ve racked up three times in five days. Tuesday and Friday out running with Mutley – 8 miles in the bank. And this morning, my regular Saturday morning route … Continue reading

December 27, 2010 | 8:54 pm

So I know it’s supposed to be swimming, cycling & running. But I can’t do any of those where we are. So how about skiing, eating & drinking..? Or skiing, drinking & recovering! That’s all I’ve done today. Tomorrow is … Continue reading

The downside of the curve

December 20, 2010 | 11:08 am

At what point does a cycling blog cease to exist? Right now, Curesam.com can’t pretend to be about cycling, as I can’t remember the last time I went out on my bike. I could look it up but what’s the … Continue reading

My Garmin has been on a trip

December 14, 2010 | 8:15 pm

And I’m not talking about the four miles I did with Mutley this evening! It just died on me the day after I last used it (Nov 20th) and nothing I could do would get it working again. After a … Continue reading
