I live in Kent, I work in the City of London.
The distance between house and office as the crow flies is about 25 miles.
By A road, its about 31.
I commute in by train and tube.
It takes me 1.5 hours a day on good days, 2 hours + on bad. Each way.
It costs nearly 300 GBP a month. 3,600 a year.
And I buy food at the station. Not healthy food. Junk. Anything for stimulation.
This may sound insane, but I am not the only one who does this. I get on with maybe 60-80 people, and there are easily 6 trains in the rush hours. The station car park holds a good 200 cars, and is rarely less than full.
So, if I can cut costs, increase calorie burn and get fitter, I should be doing better than I am now.
I will cycle in. To Work. From Kent.
But I will start slowly ...
This is going to be my diary
