Blog Day 2, Takeo – Kampong Speu

On the beginning of day two, there was a general feeling of exhaustion and aching muscles throughout the team, but the cycle must continue! We began our first 20km of the cycle travelling down one road, passing all the local children cycling on their way to school. Continuing down this road, we were then cycling with rice fields for miles either side of us and the mountains in the horizon. A truly spectacular site, distracting me from my aching limbs. We also were fortunate in today’s cycle as we experienced some light rain, cooling us down on a particularly hard road. Although I began today’s cycle feeling very sore, I finished today feeling I’d pushed through and was now ready for the rest of the week.
