I have gone from a UK size 20 (US 16) to a UK size 12 (US 8) and am now starting to fit into some UK size 10 (US 6) clothes. It would be nice to be a UK 10 all of the time. My main forms of…

3.5 mile hike along the coast path - and some of those cliffs were seriously steep!

Started the month with a 10 mile bike ride

The sun is shining so I'm going to be ambitious and aim for 100 miles in June.

Finishing May well over target - 91.5 miles
