This is my 183rd post on this blog, which marks the halfway point of this transformation, not that much transformation has been happening of late!! Perhaps that’s why I’ve not been feeling great these last few days. Another day of not going to the gym and this is the last weekend this happens as I’mContinue reading “Saturday 29th January 2022”

Still no motivation to exercise and it is starting to get me down a little, small steps I know to get back into it so to be kind to myself and let it happen when it happens. However, interestingly enough, since I had that energy session with my friend last Sunday, I’ve been less awareContinue reading “Friday 28th January 2022”

Another day without the motivation to exercise! I really need to find a strategy to overcome this as I’m starting to not feel great which is a sign that I need to shake things up a bit. I bit the bullet today and made contact with my local doctors’ surgery about the tiredness, I gotContinue reading “Thursday 27th January 2022”

Managed to get nearly 9 hours sleep last night, well that’s what my Fitbit says anyway and defined it as good sleep too whatever that means!! Have swapped my days around this week so it was a uni day today as I had volunteered to man the website for the online openday at the uniContinue reading “Wednesday 26th January 2022”

A bit of a slow morning as felt the effects of yesterday’s shenanigans, as I don’t drink alcohol very often and not very much these days I do notice that it takes me longer to recover than it used to, that might be my age perhaps too! Last night after getting home I did endeavourContinue reading “Sunday 23rd January 2022”
December 2021 – Catching my breath
December this year has been a time I attempt to catch my breath so to speak, for the last decade I haven’t really taken much time off at Christmas as I felt that if I wasn’t working I wasn’t earning money and that freaked the hell out of me. For most of the month, IContinue reading “December 2021 – Catching my breath”

With being pinged last night I had to cancel my early gym session this morning as was unsure about the rules around self-isolation so had a relatively slow morning. I managed to find a number for the test and trace helpline and got confirmation that I didn’t need to self-isolate for 9 days, however, IContinue reading “Wednesday 12th January 2022”

Today has been a very long day. After not doing the work I had planned to do last night I got up early and cracked on with it before I headed off to the uni for a day of lecturing! This was the first day back lecturing after the festive break and wow it’s tiringContinue reading “Tuesday 11th January 2022”

Made it my third Crossfit session of the week this morning, feels good to be back into the swing of it, although I am aware it’s only the first week so not getting ahead of myself. My body does ache a fair bit and I feel physically tired which is a good thing I guessContinue reading “Friday 7th January 2022”

A good day today, it was a business day so slightly slower paced than the other days I’ve had this week. Another workout in the bag this morning, this time it was intervals – I have to say it was bloody freezing leaving the house at 6.20am, -3°C was the temperature on the car’s thermometerContinue reading “Thursday 6th January 2022”
