5.8 on Monday. It's turned rainy yesterday and today. I had Pilates today at least, and yesterday for the first time in ages did the Jillian Michaels 'no more trouble zones' workout. The motivator is that, having had a 5 year break from sailing since DD started uni, we're now booked on a flotilla next year (one week training, the second week cruising). I've not been doing nearly enough upper body work - a bit in Pilates but not enough.

Sailing holiday next year sounds like a great motivator.
6.5km run today. October has been really good for me so far!

Ha, I'm just in that 'it's rainy today, I should get into my workout clothes and do the DVD but I can't face the Battle of the High Impact Bra...' state....Grin

DH has strained his foot somehow, so we had a very gentle 6km around some nice gardens.

Aftershock Run bras - they have 2 fasteners on the back, absolutely god send - no more battle of the high impact bra!

FrangipaniBlue · 09/10/2022 15:18

Sorry, SHOCK ABSORBER not aftershock, those are my headphones FGS 😂😂

FrangipaniBlue · 09/10/2022 15:19

These ones

shockabsorber.co.uk/ultimate-run-bra-light-dusty-lilac/

You can get them in lots of colours from most sports outlets

ErrolTheDragon · 09/10/2022 17:38

That's what I've got, mine are an older model but same style. I can't do up the top set of fasteners in situ for some reason - odd, because my arms are very flexible - so I leave that fastened and just do and undo the lower set. The band is pretty tight so it's doable but only just! I've got the less high impact Shock Absorbers too which are much more like a normal bra and easy to put on but don't quite cut the mustard for star jumps.Grin

Have you got them in the higher grooves @ErrolTheDragon ?

I moved mine up so that I can reach by putting my hands over my shoulders and leaning my head forward IYSWIM?

ErrolTheDragon · 09/10/2022 23:08

Ah, no, I've got them in the lowest grooves because I'm short.
