Chocolate shopping ...

The perfect antidote to training.

This supermarket is not just any old supermarket, but one that sells purely one type of product - chocolate.

It is the Lindt factory outlet in Aachen. It has rows and rows of aisles with islands and shelves, all just laden with chocolate in every shape and form. It is always busy - full of happy shoppers filling their trolleys and walking out with boxes of the stuff.

I confess that we were no different in that respect.
