First of all, apologies to Destiny's Child for bringing the name of their fifth best song* into disrepute.
I decided on the title to this blog as I descended a hill for the second time. I thought about going up the same hill again for a third time, but wasn't sure "hill, hill, hill" would work quite the same so I decided to venture up a couple of other ones. As it turned out, I did go up that hill a third time a bit later on. Because I am a fool.
More interestingly, this week I cycled 100km in one go! I got to around 75km and thought I would see if I could push myself a bit further and get to three figures.
It was all going well until just before 90km in, when the world started to feel like a dark, lonely, painful place. Shortly after that I remembered I had some sweets in my pocket, though, and everything felt better!
Unsurprisingly I ached when I got home, and again the following morning, but I was quite pleased with my achievements so far.

* Probably not that controversial. Also worthy of note for the uninitiated are Say My Name (a sad tale about forgetfulness), Bugaboo (about an insect ghost or something - not in the top five) and Bootylicious (a tragic tale about somebody who filled up on dinner and isn't quite ready for pudding).
