Went mountain biking this morning up a wee mountain. Never done it before. Mate had a spare bike. Only had time to do half of the trail as we were pushed for time. Loved it. Body aches now. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿšดโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿšตโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I wish lol. Had a bit of problem with Garmin. It was close. We cycled round the trail around the lake

Iโ€™m sat here with a full move bar on the Garmin... all I can see around me are hills, so itโ€™s not happening! Iโ€™m in snowdonia so May have to drive to the coast in a bit. Iโ€™m supposed to be doing 400m sprints. Hill sprints are good, mountain sprints not so much!

I was amazed how harder that is than cycling and how much it works your whole body.

Itโ€™s a good workout for sure... your calorie burn is pretty close to what Iโ€™d get on a run... who says the bike does a lot of the work?!
