Tuesday 5 July

Some British Athletes marching along at the Opening Ceremony

I drove out to Beaver Stadium for a training session on the American River College (ARC) track. I did 2 * 120 + 80. I set up the session on my marvellous new Garmin but I did not press the right buttons so it did not turn out quite right. I shall get there eventually. On the way back I called in at Wal-Mart and bought some provisions. I got some lunch from Wings Kitchen - General Chicken with steamed rice. I used up the excess steamed rice with some low fat vanilla yogurt - it was very tasty! I Skyped my mum and then went to the pool. A few more Brits have arrived – including Fred and Jane Pidgeon. In the early evening I walked over to the stadium to watch the opening ceremony. I saw Anne Darby there and I promised her a lift to the cross country in the morning.
