Bugs Bugs Go Away!

Saturday, May 29th, 2010

Well, I am afraid it has not been a very productive week work out wise. I was really busy on Monday and Tuesday and usually I’d work out at least a little bit any way, but I just felt like I had been hit by a ton of bricks – despite getting caught up on [...]

Oooh, you dime bar!

Friday, May 28th, 2010

I have never been a fan of watching boxing – seeing people get punched in the head, I can’t see the appeal. But I have long since been thinking I should take up boxing as a form of exercise as it’s meant to be a great cardio workout and everyone I know who does do [...]

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

Well I managed to complete Week 1 of Couch to 5k despite a migraine and getting my period last week. I am very pleased with myself. Today I start Week 2 – running for 90 seconds at a time instead of 60 – I hope it’s OK. Looking outside right now the weather looks wet [...]

I did it, finally. W1D1 of C25K completed – that’s Week 1, Day 1 of the Couch to 5k Running plan for anyone not au fait with the acronyms. I actually went out first on Thursday night just to walk the route I planned on taking and it did not go so well, there were [...]

Dear Motivation…

Saturday, May 8th, 2010

….where are you hiding recently? I have been talking about starting the Couch to 5k running plan for around two months now – I’ve bought the running tights, I got running shoes for my birthday, I have a stack of tshirts ready for action, I’ve downloaded the first few weeks of podcasts. Yet every night [...]
