Off to France ready for La Marmotte

In a few minutes I will be leaving for Alpe d'Huez, ready to take on the mighty La Marmotte tomorrow.  Training done, carbohydrate loading ongoing and mental preparation commenced.  The only concern I have is that I almost had a cramp in the night when I stretched my leg out.  If it had cramped fully it usually tends to be sore for a couple of days afterwards and that would have been really bad news for La Marmotte.  I will have to keep an eye on that and make sure I try to get the calf muscle more relaxed.

So now it really is time to leave.  I will post the results when I get back on Sunday night.  Enjoy your weekend.  Despite the grueling task ahead I certainly will enjoy mine.
