Thursday 4th Jan

I run-led myself and two fellow LRRs at the track - 5mins run / 1 min walk x8

I ended up doing 5.2km in 4mins :)

At work I did 400m in 9.04.46 

I'm feeling quietly confident about of&h for January. I wonder if I've lost any weight?

HB a run and swim :)

Today - we'll yesterday now (3/1) I did HB with Kelly and Darryl from tri club then went for a quick run. Left shin - bit sore... Bumped into Charlotte so walked her halfway home - then I ran home. Shin fine. 20mins.

Work - swam during break.  Miscounted again. 350m 8.09.97

Feeling positive for January 

Happy New Year! Operation Fit and Healthy is baaaaaaack :)

I think I had PTSD from Weymouth 70.3

But I reckon I've finally got over the horror of it and am now ready to focus on my 2018 season. Needless to say making sure I actually do enough training for my upcoming events will be my major focus 

Although I also loved the event - all eight hours twenty four minutes and twenty seven seconds. And my feelings of total and utter epic accomplishment are second to none. Just look at the pic taken in the finishing chute for proof x

So what have I done to kick start of&h?

I've made a pact with myself that I'll swim every day that I'm at the Jubilee Sports Centre and I've signed up to Runcamps Runuary. 

30/12 - 20mins of splashing about while chatting to Sarah

31/12 - 400m 9.33.02

01/01 - 350m 8.05.96 (mis-counted!)

02/01 - 400m 9.25.25 and 35mins at Hurtbox 

Plus I'm focused on losing 20lbs by the Brighton Marathon in 14 weeks time. 

Wahooooooooo

Let's do this!!!!!!

Too.much.food.

It's as if I haven't eaten anything for a week. I'm inhaling food. It's utterly ridiculous. 

My brighton marathon training starts now. I have to tip the training to cake scales back to sensible. 

This eve helped as did circuits at work then cycled to Tauntons for LRR  S&C session. 

Monday morning

Alot less stopping today :)

End of week 18

Well I managed 3 HB sessions - Monday was 20 mins but managed the whole session the other two days. Wednesday  I wanted to stop but was doing the session with coach Jo so couldn't!!!!

Thursday I did 2 fitness classes at the Mayflower gym - pilates and express HIIT. Then hopped on the treadmill and did a 20min interval session - 2k.

It was our Hove Christmas this weekend. Wonderful fun but no exercise. 

Let's see how I do next week...

Lose 20lbs in 20 weeks to be 20 mins quicker at Brighton without any training.

Well... not such a great start. I've managed to put on 1.75lbs. 

I'm not actually managing to do much running which I'm guessing is the main reason for my lack of a loss for this week.

Let's see how this week goes xx
