Month: February 2017

I picked Giles up from the airport tonight. He landed later than scheduled and we didn’t get home till 8. The only remaining yoga class of the day was at 21:15 which is pretty late, but I felt I would be cheating myself if I didn’t go, now that I have a written plan for … Continue reading Yoga

I made it to the gym this morning! It’s been so long since I went that they have refurbished! Haha.  I quite like the gym I go to, nothing too swanky as it’s a local leisure centre (think Brittas Empire), but it’s big and functional and close to home. When I went there this morning … Continue reading Monday 

This week I want to get back into running. My plan is still to complete a race every month this year and I have been following a half marathon training plan, but need to be more consistent with it. My yoga practice has been a bit more regular than my running but I want to aim for 4 … Continue reading Plan

The start of February has been a challenge. I feel I have barely been at home as work has taken me all over the place and the lack of planned routine with my exercise has meant that I have avoided it on the days I have actually had time. This definitely wasn’t my plan for 2017. I … Continue reading Meh

I know this makes me a loser, but I have bought a medal rack!  As the intention is to run a medal-winning race each month I just though it would be an awesome way to keep my achievements in plain sight.  I should receive my Run Every Day medal from Mind soon which takes my … Continue reading Medals 

Today I ran my 1st race of February which is technically my 3rd medal winning run of the year. It was so good! Last week was madly busy and had so many late nights so I took myself off to bed at 9pm last night. I am really grateful for a good nights sleep and … Continue reading London Winter Run 10Km

This last week has been hectic with work. The trip to Rome and then I’ve had a couple of full days and evening since I got back. My last day at yoga was Sunday before I left for Rome, so 6 days ago now, and my last run on 31st Jan, 4 days ago.  Once … Continue reading February so far

I acheived a fair amount in January. I ran 100Km, completed my 1st medal-winning race of the year, and finished a 30-day hot yoga challenge.  Why? Well, January is always a good point to reflect on the last year and to set intentions. I don’t like the often transient nature of New Years Resolutions but … Continue reading Reflection on January

Yesterday, despite the hangover, I ran 2Km completing the Run Every  Day challenge for Mind. This January I have completed 100Km running every single day whilst simultaneously completing a 30-day hot yoga challenge.  More posts to follow later! Continue reading I did it
