Hi @LoudSnoringDog 🤗 glad to have you joining us!

Hope you are feeling better soon buffy

2 mile WWL done ✅

Welcome @ LoudSnoringDog !
68 x 25m swim and 1 hour pilates class. I was furious when I realised I'd stopped short of 70 😂

2hrs netball! It was really good fun

Shred L2 done. Just one more - tomorrow if I can possibly drag myself out of bed. I wish I were a morning person.

Glad the netball was fun, buffy!

I didn’t make it out running on Monday as I wasn’t at work (bank holiday). However, I went out with one of the regular running groups who were doing a timed mile. I did it in 7 min 33 sec. Which I think is reasonable given the course is very hilly, and no one enjoys running up hills.

Little bit behind!

I've taught boxercise 3 times, done bodycombat 4 times, and 3 swims and a pilates.
61 (if I count tonight's BodyCombat before it hatches)

Posting now to make myself go to s&c later. Quads are still sore after so many squats on Tuesday evening.

3 mile dog walk - achilles and calf giving me problems today. Though fine in the house,and fine yesterday. I might have to give in and ask for physio referral. It's frustrating that it's much improved, but not consistently.

Goodness I remember when everyone on here was WILD for the 30 day shred! Blast from the past.

I'm just back from a 45 minute walk in the woods. Still managing at least 10k steps a day every day. And my foot injury is managing with that alongside parkrun. Considering a different course for Saturday morning but will see how weather/foot is.

Shred L2 done, though not very well- this was one of those days when every move is an effort. Glad to see the back of it!

Well done @ProfessorRadcliffeEmerson , my feeling is that workouts like that, count double.

70 x 25m swim

Super stressy work day so I managed a short run (in baking heat, 22c) before going out for a lovely destressing dinner with friends. Incredible aurora borealis overhead to cap the night off 😍

I really wanted to get out and see the lights, but I was in bed before I even knew they were happening 😑
Gorgeous pic.

Quite week for me on the exercise front due to being so busy elsewhere.
Tuesday I walked to the gym and did a stairmaster session.
Wednesday I ran but missed my Pilates class
Thursday I walked a bit but not much usual effort so I'm not counting it.
Friday I went to my strength class, which was actually my only strength session this week.

Will aim to do Pilates today.
As it's getting warmer, I'll be less inclined to run as I hate running in the heat, so I'm going to start aiming for a 6am run twice a week 🙃

*quiet!

Wow MotherForkinShirtBalls! That's fabulous - I get excited if I see a few stars 😂it's crazy when you realise how long you can go without actually looking up at the night sky.
florenceandthemac - you've still made more effort than most, you can't go full pelt every single week. I bet you have great week next week.

I know, isn't it just beautiful, imfree? Even with lots of light pollution.

S&c this morning. Weather is so beautiful I'm going to do some tidying in the garden and then cycle down for a sea dip later in the day, when the crowds will hopefully be a bit less.

30 min spin

Lovely easy swim with ds this afternoon. It's ages since he did more than mucking around in the pool so we took it easy and I was able to concentrate on my form.

Shred L3 begun - unless something happens to throw me off target I should be able to finish just before half term. With some trepidation I have bought a copy of T25 on Ebay and will give that a go after half term.

Great photo of the aurora, MotherForkin! I missed it altogether.

Good luck with L3 @ProfessorRadcliffeEmerson

Didn't do any real exercise over the weekend.
Been to my strength class this morning

Will do Pilates later. Usually run on a Monday too but I've rejigged my plan for summer now, and will be running tomorrow morning before work.
As much as I hate the warmer weather for exercising, I do hope it stays like this for a while now

5 mile dog walk, which was lovely, but dog picked up loads of ticks at NT property 🤮 I only have him 2 days a week but he's picked them up on every walk for the past few weeks. They aren't feeding on him, as he gets his spot on applied regularly,but it doesn't stop them picking them up. It's doing my head in. Such a shame, as we love woodland and countryside walks. He'll have to have a boring path/road walk tommorrow, as I can't cope with them again. Instructor has cancelled pilates tonight. I'm trying to motivate myself to do my own body bar and pilates workout but failing so far. 😳

Shred L3 done - 8 more to go.

I wouldn’t be able to cope with ticks either, Imfreetofeelgood. Yech. Your poor dog.

Swam Friday, BodyCombat + weights + swim on Sunday, swam plus Boxercise last night (as usual, stupidly joined in on the finisher and almost cried - 1 minute jab-cross fast as possible).

Had a really good swim yesterday - sadly it teemed down with rain overnight so I'll stay out of the water a couple days.
