I managed only a 30 minute run tonight as my foot fall was not good and I quickly developed shin (tissue) pain on one side. Too much foot slapping on the ground. I will try again tomorrow. Weights this week has only been bicep work. Too busy preparing to go overseas. The bay looked good in the evening light…

cos it was my parents 40th wedding anniversary. This category of day is spent eating.

yes I have been training since my last post but haven’t posted. I went over seas on a couple of trips through Sept, Oct and November so training was irregular. Overall, I sustained a routine of sorts, kept a core basic fitness for awhile maintaned my chin up average until christmas, and stayed off fizzys during the weekdays, but not Saturdays and Sundays. Did a fair bit of work between late Nov and Christmas then put on few pounds over the break while overseas again. I did two runs between Christmas and January 7. On January 8 and 9 managed two forty min runs; Jan 11 another forty minute run; Jan 12 a 56 min run; Jan 13 a 40 min; Jan 14 40 mins;Jan 15 45mins. Started lifting again too..trying to find my muscle memory and trying to forget the taste of chocolate covered almonds.
