Ventoux still only by bike

 stats of the week: run 23 km, cycled 54 km, hiked 20 km

The never ending heat wave forces us to shorten our stay in France by one week. What also means that the Ventoux half marathon is cancelled for me. The decision is obviously sensible as the weather forecast shows a temperature of 38°c on raceday, even in the morning it will be close to 30°.  Alas, it is still disappointing. I will stick to hill training and look for a nice trail race at home.

At least we were happy to cycle up Mont Ventoux another time, my 12th bike ascent now, this time from Bedoin, what is regarded as the toughest of the three ways up. I agree.
