Returning to work after Christmas can feel dark – literally and metaphorically. If you’re in an office job like mine, you’ve hopefully had an extended break from the office and the routine that goes with it. The fear, which starts when you realise you can’t remember your network password, what you were doing before the break,Continue reading “Little things”

In the zone?
I’ve not blogged for far too long – probably because I’ve not been in the zone. But that’s exactly the topic of what I’m going to call my comeback blog! Every year I start with good intentions to lose my Christmas weight and generally be fitter. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn’t. There areContinue reading “In the zone?”
Back to blogging. Back to fitness?
Yet again, I’ve left it a little while since I last blogged. I’ll now try to make up for it – so I’ll probably blog half a dozen times in a week before I slip again. When I last blogged, I was talking about the impending Jennings Rivers Ride. Sadly the event was postponed, dueContinue reading “Back to blogging. Back to fitness?”
Run on, ride on…
As I mentioned in my last blog, I’ve not really ran for some time. So when a friend asked me to run on Wednesday evening, I felt I couldn’t say no. Despite it being around two months since I last ran (and that run wasn’t one for the record books!), I managed a 6+ mileContinue reading “Run on, ride on…”
The third and final challenge
In my last blog I talked about two of the three exercise related challenges I have set myself this year. This blog covers the third – my most recent – which I undertook yesterday. I write whilst the wounds are still raw! So to summarise: 1) Keswick to Barrow walk (40 miles)2) Coast to CoastContinue reading “The third and final challenge”
Hello?
At the request of @fawcylad, here’s a new blog, and the first of a series of two. The best thing about my blog is how I post frequent updates about my weight loss journey, which engage and inspire others. Well, I don’t do that, but it was my plan. However, the truth of the matterContinue reading “Hello?”
Blogged off?
Hello everyone! It seems somewhat odd to be writing this blog again after so long having a break. But here I am. I’d love to tell you I have some really good reasons why I’ve not blogged for a while, but the truth is that whilst I have been busy at work and at home,Continue reading “Blogged off?”
Hitting the wall
Just a quick post today. As I mentioned in my last health-based rambling, I was a bit naughty the weekend before last. As a result, I am working hard to try and recover from some of the “badness” before tomorrow’s weigh in! However, in doing this, I have learned the meaning of the term “hittingContinue reading “Hitting the wall”
Hello? Anybody there
Latest loss: 0.5lb. Total loss to date: 12lb Hello everyone. Sorry, I have been incredibly lame in posting. I am sure you all thought I’d given up and abandoned the blog/weight loss. Well I’m pleased to say this isn’t the case, although I didn’t weigh in this week. The loss above, of half a pound,Continue reading “Hello? Anybody there”
Run from hell
I was going to tie this post in to my last blog post, but it wasn’t really connected, and I thought it’d sit better on its own. I’ve only ran four times this year so far. I want to run a lot more. I need to run a lot more if I am to hitContinue reading “Run from hell”
