Adlington blogs from Amazing Africa
See rebeccaadlington.co.uk, they are doing it for charity, and you can donate at JustGivingI knew the bike ride was going to be difficult but I don’t think I realised quite how hard it would be. It was without a doubt the hardest challenge I’ve ever done. The first day was 80 miles, which was hardcore to say the least. Unfortunately, Jo Jackson and I weren’t feeling too great and Jo had a little fall on the bike too. But, true to form, she got straight back on and carried on.
