Day 163: Long Day at the Office

As predicted no time for training today with the office and then straight back to pick the kids up. But on a good note had a very productive day today so will look forward to training hard tomorrow.

Until tomorrow...

Day 162: Full body Weights

A bit of everything at the gym today which was a change, back, legs, arms and abs today. Went much heavier than normal too and had planned to only do 5 reps of each but surprisingly on most of the exercises I managed to keep turning out 10 reps each time I increased the weight which was really good news.

Not sure I will get a workout tomorrow as I have another trip to the office which is not conducive to being able to schedule in a workout. I'm just glad that I am still getting in most of my workouts though.

Until tomorrow...

Day 161: Another Beautiful Day

Thanks Lynda, the sunshine was fantastic again. Not as much fun today due to unfounded allegations made against me but things were cleared up eventually. Spent some time walking today and enjoying the beautiful day.

Until tomorrow...

Day 160: Amazing Weather

Thanks Lynda, the sun you have been trying to send finally arrived today and considering it's the end of September it was scorching today, shorts and vest weather again. Nice trip shopping in the morning followed by a great pizza lunch and then a bit of running with the kids in the afternoon to and from Nanny and Grandads whilst they were on their bikes.

What more could someone ask for...

Until tomorrow...

Day 159: It's the Start of the Weekend!!!

A beautiful day to end the week and start the weekend. Had another solid 5k run today. Day out with the kids and friends tomorrow with pizza for lunch so should be a great day. Weather is set to be great all weekend too which is a bonus. Not sure I will get any training in as my wife has to work all weekend again but I am gonna try to get something done Sunday.

Wishing everyone a great weekend.

Until tomorrow...

Day 158: Pace Car

Had a lovely run today which turned out to be quite interesting. I guess I was about halfway round my 5k circuit when a friend of mine pulled around the corner in his car and we briefly talked as I continued running as it was a very quiet little road and we were heading in the same direction. He was spurring me on so I jokingly said are you going to pace me!!!

Anyway if shot off but then about 50 yards up the road it turns into a very bumpy dirt track. I thought I would have a go at catching him which turned out to be quite easy. A courier van was about another 200 yards up the track and the delivery guy was out delivering, now it's only a single lane dirt track!! So I cruised up past both of them and continued along the lane. By the time I got to the end he was still not in sight.

I eventually passed him about 1k from my house so he had been caught up for quite some time!! Put in a pretty decent time for my 5k. Feeling good from the weights session yesterday.

Until tomorrow...

Day 157: Chest, Back and Arms

I really pushed myself today to get down to the gym and I had a great and intense workout which was great. Concentrated on Chest, back and arms today with a set of abs in between.

My head is in a bad place at the moment and I think it is gonna be a real push to keep training but I am determined not to let it get the better of me and set me back in my plans.

Until tomorrow...
