Hey everyone, Ben Cooper Radio, episode number 408.

I hope you are well.

I hope you are set up to have an incredibly awesome day.

I've just come back from, sort of four and a half days in the Yorkshire Dales and it was absolutely awesome to get away

into a different environment and just decompress, completely chill, kind of switch off the phone, the majority of the time, get outside.

We went on loads of long walks with the dog, had sort of pub dinners, went and did the Black Sheep

and sometimes it's just allowing our brains

to reset and see things clearly again. So for me going away, it wasn't that I needed a physical break. I'm actually not training that much at the moment and I'm going to do a little initiative over the summer because I'm not really been training that was

felt a little bit burnt out felt a little bit tired and actually going away just by like the end of the second day so

like the Friday evening we went on the Wednesday lunchtime and by the Friday

evening I just felt myself like completely decompressing and I knew that by
