This refers to the children rather than the teachers – see the extract from the CTC weekly email – but after another week of winter commuting to work, I am aching for the Spring to arrive with its lighter mornings and evenings and slightly warmer temperatures. Whether I am still getting fitter is open to question; my daily cycle is more endurance than fitness training for the moment. Another few weeks – the clocks change at the end of March – and training can kick in seriously again.
