    Concerned by the verl low average speed of the cycling !

  • 2009 – Goal #1 – Completed !

    fitness http://www.wordle.net/
    Rather than setting resolutions I set myself goals this year.
    The first one of these was:
    “Jog For One Mile – No Stopping – No Pain”
    Tonight I managed just that.
    Next goal, complete the MND Scotland 10K Fun Run.
    I completed this last year but there was more walking than jogging, this year WILL be different.

  • New Year – New Fitness Regime

    No New Years Resolutions, just a revisiting of the fitness regime I started last year.
    It’s late so just a quick update.
    I have started week 1 of both One Hundred PushUps and Two Hundred SitUps.
    I have also had my first jog in over four months. I went back to my patented “lamp-post method”: jog for one lamp-post, walk for one. I managed to complete a mile in 20 minutes. I have suddenly remembered how much I love being out in the middle of the night. Watching a fox hunt in the field beside the road before I start.
