Hey , welcome back to

The Sunday Summary

, a collection of insights and my behind the scenes from the past week.

Not much time in the taxi this week, thankfully I'm ahead of production so you're still getting some videos and short releases from me 😊 

🎙️ 🚴🏻 A career highlight!:UCI Cycling World Championships: Bike Trials Commentary (BBC Sport)

Wow! What a rush! I think I may have found my dream career! I was graced with the opportunity to provide Live commentary for the sport I ride in; Bike trials. At Glasgow Green, Scotland.My first time doing anything like at this level. I'm still on cloud nine.

20” Men's Elite Semi-Final26” Men’s Elite Semi Final

Bike trials is a very niche sport and the semi finals have never got a full broadcast in this way.  It was a very long day for the production team, but somehow 9 hours just flew by! And I felt like I was floating coming out of the booth. Couple of glitches during the production were a little bit unsettling, but managed to overcome in the moment, nothing like a live production to put the hairs on your chest!Finals for the; Juniors (20” and 26”) and Women's elite took place earlier today. And finals for men 20” and 26” this evening.  It will all be available on BBC Sport and a potential of 3 podium places for Team GB! Maybe 3x Gold medals! 🥇🥇🥇.🧘🏼 😮‍💨 A protocol I've been followingGuided Wim Hof Breathing MethodWHOOP, the best wearable fitness track I've owned (I've had 2x Apple Watches, multiple fit bits), launched a core 4.0 challenge for August. Effectively commit to doing a behaviour for the whole month of August and it bags a discount on your subscription.I've been toying with breath work, so committing to a full month means I can yield some valuable data.  Combined with my daily cold shower ritual, I attribute it to my decreased resting heart rate.It's also lowering my stress levels which can be seen from the app's in built stress monitor.  That's my next metric I want to focus on!If you want an incredibly powerful and euphoric relaxation ritual (with scientifically proven health benefits) then do check out the Wim Hot Method!  Just 11 minutes of your day.If you are interested in joining Whoop, you can get a free WHOOP 4.0 band and one month FREE when you join with my link: https://join.whoop.com/7688F571They have a 30 day money back period, so well worth trying!☀️🚵🏻 The annual trials bike trip to Porthcawl:Last weekend (shock horror, I write these emails in advance) I went with a few friends to Ogmore, Southerndown and Porthcawl.  Just great social, sun and trials bikes (oh and fish and chips).   What’s not to love 😊 First time trying lavaebread. Cockles and Bacon, sounds like a dream!📖 Audiobook that's got me thinking about life:The Moneyless Man: A Year of Freeconomic Living - Mark BoyleI recently watched a video showing Mark Boyle’s off-grid living system, I was inspired to learn more about him and learn of his initial foray into "Freeconomic" lifestyle through The Moneyless Man. There’s plenty of thoughts I identify with, such as the decision not to own a TV and people think you’re an extremist.  To some new ways of thinking that really opened my eyes.  Such as the notion of toilets, we put our waste product into clean water and flush it away with clean water, then that water has to be treated to make it clean again!  Just bonkers stuff when you really think about it.
