Exerciseathon keeps exercising

New thread for us to keep on keeping on.

That sounds like a good thing to have in the week @OublietteBravo

I've decided to add Pilates as non-negotiable in my week. I'm a bit adrift, don't even know if I'm getting free gym (where I used to teach). I'd planned on a winter of Deadlifts and BodyPump but I'll have to think again if I'm expected to pay for the gym. I'm still a bit humpty about the abrupt nature of my departure, and I'm not for paying!

Couple of days off for me, heavy week at work

Work running group sounds great!

I've just done an exercise video today. Wasn't in the mood to head out for a run or swim. It's a right hokey cokey of a week with a few y6 open evenings so a quieter day of not shoving myself out has been quite nice before the evening gets busy.

Thanks Bez! Will give it a go

Hi Oubliette 👋👋

I am not Tom Morrison (or his sidekick Jenni)

Unplanned rest day yesterday. I was going to go to the pool at lunchtime but got caught on a work call and the the weather was too awful to even think about leaving the couch.

Gym this evening.

Ds had cycling training in school today so I ran up to meet him at pick up time and ran home with him cycling. Well, I walked bits in both directions but given how long it is since I did any running, it was less bad than I feared!

Happy weekend everyone.

Happy weekend! Nothing today nor yesterday (rest days ahem) but definitely at least dippage on Sunday. I'm thinking time to ressurrect my Big Saturday Runs, since I'm not in the gym anymore.

Gym and dog walk before the weather got too bad this morning. Planning to light the fire and knit for the afternoon!

Love the sound of your Friday afternoon Motherforkin.

WWL Saturday and spent most of the day in the garden on Sunday, sadly not relaxing, but weeding, tidying, grass cutting etc.

Swam yesterday, I think that's it since Wednesday's Pilates?

137 (progress slows to a crawl due to being cut off from gym)

It was lovely Roonetta!

Hill walk with the dog this morning and gym this evening.

174

Short pool swim today. The lane was packed and I was too fast for the other swimmers but too slow for the faster lane. So I stopped very quickly when my shoulder started grumbling

175

Bodyshred Cardio 1 done. Haven't done that one in a while and enjoyed it.

Ran school pick up with DS today. The uphill run to the school didn't feel quite as awful as the last day. He was on his scooter so I had to cheat improvise when we had some races between lampposts. None was more than about 50m but they nearly killed me. I'm going to try to do it twice a week to get some running in because I just can't make myself do it any other times.

176

All quiet chez Bogroll. I've got the lurgy so I'm resting it up (which to be fair is nicely timed for the start of my taper so no great loss) and feeding it on some very nutritious home made pumpkin soup. DS was put off by the chewing involved as it's hearty stuff 😂

Very unsuitable for herbivores as it was made off last night's slow-cooked chicken.

I went out running with the beginners running group at lunchtime. That’s 3 consecutive weeks now.

Three weeks in a row is great @OublietteBravo

I skipped Pilates this week, weak motivation. Was going to go to BodyCombat tonight as a participant, but the class is cancelled as the new (old) instructor is sick. The gym haven't asked me if I want to cover ffs. So I guess they'd rather just cancel a class and save 20 quid (which is anyway tax deductible from profits) than ask me to cover it and deliver a service that the members expect and have paid for in advance.

That's very frustrating Bez.

Yesterday's races against ds paid off this evening, we had to do shuttle runs in our last set at the gym class. I managed not to pass out or vomit.

177

Short run this morning.

178

30 min club bangers ride after 10 days off!

Gym class. Got a heavier weight on my deadlift. Only 30kg more to get back to my pb 😂

179

Yoga with Adriene done today as back is still grumbling.

114/200

Group dip at 9 then a wee canoe at 4pm. A good day!

Edit 138/200!

Canoeing sounds fun Bez!

20 minute morning yoga flow done.
