After playing contract bridge all afternoon, a four hour session which I also directed, I felt like a spot of exercise. So, I changed and jumped on my bike and headed off along one of my usual routes. I covered the 10.9 km in just 32 minutes, my fastest ever. That's an average speed of 20.5 km / hr (12.8 mph) over quite a hilly route, with home being the highest point on the route at 1013 m (3290 ft). The lowest point was 978 m, about 35 m (112 ft) below where we live. Not bad for a 68 yo? However, on second thoughts, that's not too much different to a marathon runner. Maybe I should up my training schedule.
