Happy New Year! It felt good to wake up without a significant hangover this morning. A good start to the year and how I plan to continue for the foreseeable. Yesterday I went for a run before the festivities started, and completed 4 miles (6.44Km) in 39:44. It felt alright but when I looked it … Continue reading 1/365
I haven’t blogged for a month, which is nuts! Initially I was busy with work but then things eased off and I took the opportunity to take a bit of a break.

Well that was not the fun route I remember! Last time I ran Bedgebury Pinetum I did the 10Km route and remember it being beautiful and undulating. The half marathon route felt really steep in places, boggy, tiring and hard work. Steve ran it with me and I was greatful for the support. We completed … Continue reading Half Marathon

I planned to start my 10-day hot yoga challenge on Thursday but I was completely fucked from travelling at the start of the week. Like totally fucking exhausted. I slept really heavily on Wednesday night, could barely get out of bed on Thursday morning and spent the whole day feeling like I was dragging myself … Continue reading Yoga and rest
I had a 3 day work trip during which I didn’t exercise at all and managed to pull a muscle in my back; rendering me unable to exercise for another 4 days. A whole week off exercise made me start to feel pretty shit about myself. Particularly as the trip was boozy, full of late … Continue reading Latest ramblings

On Friday I ran 7.05Km in the 45 minutes I allocated to running. It was tough and I was ready to quit at about 40 minutes but kept on pushing to meet my goal. I stayed at a friends house on Friday night and on Saturday morning we took her dog for a walk in … Continue reading Successful Week Completed
I slept really deeply on Tuesday night and so when I woke on Wednesday I decided to incorporate my LISS into my morning commute. I walked 40 minutes to my morning meeting. It was a breakfast meeting so it felt quite difficult sitting there sipping on a black coffee while almost everyone else had breakfast. … Continue reading Wednesday & Thursday Update.
