On Friday afternoon I travelled to Holland to visit my brother and to attend my future sister-in-law’s bachelorette party. When I woke up, before I started work, I went for a walk on the common near my house. Now the weather is good I am really enjoying this type of LISS. I walked briskly for … Continue reading Day 34/66
Half way point!! This 66 day challenge was about trying to get myself into a routine of making time for a little self-care everyday. A run, a yoga class, some cross training or sun salutations. On day 33 I got up at 6am and went for a run at 06:30 on the treadmill at the … Continue reading Day 33/66
Normally my colleague and I will have a pre-dinner cocktail, share a bottle of wine over dinner and maybe have a digestif too. That’s a lot of unnecessary calories, but also means that I won’t feel like getting up to exercise in the morning.

I travelled to Manchester on Tuesday for work. It was exactly one year after the terrorist bombing at the Ariande Grande concert at the Manchester Arena. There was a minutes silence just after lunch and my colleague and I stood outside the hotel with all the hotel staff and many of the patrons. People stood … Continue reading Day 31/66
My 38th birthday was on Monday. The entirety of my exercise was two rounds of sun salutations. I had hoped to have dropped a bit of weight by my birthday, but despite a good few weeks of watching my food and exercising I haven’t seen any change that is tangible. That said I am well … Continue reading Day 30/66

On Friday morning I went for a run before work. I ran 5Km in 30:35 which for a morning run is pretty good for me. I feel my pace has suddenly really improved and I am sure it’s a combination of my zero-drop trainers and running more regularly. Feeling improvement is really reassuring. I feel … Continue reading Day 27/66
On Thursday I didn’t have a hangover, so my aim of keeping drinks to a limit seemed to work. On waking I did 5 rounds of sun salutations before heading back to London. On my journey home I started planning my exercise for the rest of the week and the weekend and I planned to … Continue reading Day 26/66
Yesterday my day started early due to work travel. However I am pleased that I still did my sun salutations before I left London. I did 4 rounds jumping back to plank.
