Yes I have joined yet another gym, this one however is 2.2 miles from my house so further than I usually go. I representation of what it will look like once the building has been completed (currently a building site). Gym on ground floor with cafe and living accommodation above (I think). Classes are…

Isle of Wight Challenge 2015
So I completed the IOW 2015 challenge, well 91km of it. It was really interesting at first but I wasn’t to fond of the night walking. It rained so my feet got wet and the paths/hills we walked were horrible. I ended at 91km as my feet were so bad & I was walking slower…
I’m sorry, not sorry
I have had a busy/lasy few weeks and I’m not sorry about it one bit. I have an assignment to get done for uni which was HARD and I still have my final one to finish. I had this week off work to visit my parents and I’ve been running a lot more (more day,…
The Isle of Wight Challenge
So my 106km challenge is getting closer, in fact it’s only 41 days away. This is how the route looks so far: The blue marks are major check points where I can get hot food if I want, there will also be minor check points between this for snacks. I am aiming to run from…
So where have I been?
I have not been on here for probably over a month now. I had issues with my host/server, worked a lot and needed to do uni work. Something happened over Feb/Mar. I started to get better at running (treadmill, not outside) and I started to lose weight again! On 2nd Feb 2015 I weighed 195.5…
New gym
So I joined the other gym today. Very quiet at 8am which is good. Not a lot of cardiovascular equipment but enough for me, today I just stuck to the treadmill. I was there for around 48 min and did around 4k, it was just a warm up to see how things are. The treadmills …
Today’s session
Barbell squats: 1 set of 10 without weight then 4 sets of 10 with 5kg each side. I am terrible at squats, I can’t keep my chest up or back straight and my knees tend to go inwards. Today was better but I’m now finding that my upper arms (bicep/deltoid) are really stiff and that…
A 5k run
I am really pushing myself with my running, I just have to push myself to get out and run! This is my fastest 5k to date, I know not fast compared to most people but I’m pleased with it. It was a wet & cold run and I tried to run most of the whole…
Working out
I am such a loser at all this workout stuff. I have only been to the gym once this week and I haven’t run at all 🙁 Friday I was meant to do both but Kieth was up all night being sick, it was raining hard when I got up so couldn’t run and I…
I think I’m slowly getting there.
So I am down 1kg this week, which is a lot for me. I’m logging everything I eat and staying under calories. With my new phone (Samsung Note 4) both my tracking apps work now – mfp & fitbit so it’s so much easier to log and check throughout the day. My 3rd gym session…
