Wide awake Wednesday
Just could not sleep yesterday morning. Woke at 4am and by 5am decided I might as well get out of bed and head over to the gym on the way to work. Managed a 5k on the treadmill (10,10,11,11,11). Was bright red for the rest of the day and today. My metabolism just does not stop once started. Can feel the pounds seeping away!
Popped over to see Paul, Neil and Liz last night. A bit tense to start with but hopefully cleared the air.
Called in to do an emergency hard disk clean up for Lauren. Urgently needed the space to load on a new game. Was life threatening for a short while.
Slumped in bed late last night and slept through. Woke this morning to see snow everywhere. Getting to work was bit frantic.
Not more sport
Yes, popped over to the gym last night with Trees.
Trees trotted out a 20 minute run followed by weights. I trotted out 60 minutes run at an easy pace. My legs feel like bricks. The stretching helps.
Snuggled on the sofa afterwards.
Don't think I have a life beyond work, eating and exercise. Off to the Lakes with the mum's this weekend to break things up a little.
Even more sport
Was planning to go to the piccies last night but Trees decided she fancied another night in the gym. How sad are we.
Trees managed cycle followed by weights. I managed 20k on the gym bike.
To add to the training we went for a walk up Great Tower with the Mums today. Fantastic views of Lake Windemere.
Guess who we bumped in to?
Firstly Gordon pearson and his family turn up at our table in Costa Coffee then Geof Benham and his family. A good old fashioned reunion. Great to see them. Geof is still over at Radbroke Hall and Gordon has a new website. Great to see them; could have stayed all night.
We were in Chester buying clothes and the like for the Canada trip. Also picked up some books on communicating with children and yet another Birding book. We are just suckers for them. Took us ages to find Waterstones. They were one floor up above our heads.
There are some great adventure shops in Chester. Had the usual Katie's Tea Room lunch and got the Park and Ride.
Not blogged for ages - what's going on?
Well,
have been in work all week to start with.
Went for a swim Tuesday morning in Warrington TF and popped over to see Lauren then Neil and Liz at the night.
Last night went for a swimming lesson at Wrexham Total Fitness. Apparantly I do a fantastic windmill impression. Did some swimming techniques that nearly drowned me. Has left me very tired today.
Monday? what did I do? MMmm..Oh yes... one hour on the stairmaster in the gym.
Thats all folks
Just to be different I did some exercise last night
Feel like I have nothing to say other than I did some form of exercise last night. I am starting to yawn myself.
Anyway, last night I went for a run with Danny. A 4km sprint in the dark through Erddig. Tried out the new Petzel and tried my Walsh's again. Not good, ankle is a little sore this morning. I am going to have to bite the bullet and use my squeeky clean North Face trail shoes. I have been using them as a fashion statement. Ah well, they will be somewhat dirty on Monday.
Also managed to have my ears lowered last night.
I promise to not do any sport tonight. Off to get my girl. Been missing her.
