This Week's Training

Hardly worth posting - run on Sunday and Friday, daft little swims, and lots of weights.

Talking of weight - the once a week strategy is really paying off - this week I've lost a grand total of...wait for it...0.1kgs! 88.9kgs, which even in spite of the lack of exercise, is rather disappointing!

On the plus side, I have ordered a wet suit from TriUK - and that should be arriving before the end of the week. Fingers crossed it fits, but the guy on the phone was very helpful and talked through all my concerns and seemed to take them on board.

The work situation is a bit in crisis - I'm not going to panic but lets just say I'd find it easier to push forward if I had more confidence in what I was pushing towards! The biology is still great fun for its own sake, but I still have this nagging doubt in my mind "what next?". I can't face going back to teachign except as a means to make some money while I do something else. It's time to fact find! I need to find out what the routes are to becoming a sports fizz, how much study is needed after a standard fizz degree, and so on. It's got to be done within the next month too.

This week - priorities are:


  1. Research sports fizz
  2. Line up some more fizz experience
  3. Bike and run, hopefully an OW swim in the wettie
  4. Get out and socialise - get down the running club

Have you reviewed your eating recently? Still watching portion size, being sensible about what you eat and drink...? It's easy to slip back, giving yourself the odd 'day off' which then turns into a week (obviously talking about myself here). Are you being honest with yourself about what you eat?

Just a thought.

The fizz research plan sounds good

that should take priority over everything else
you need to know what the score is so you can make an informed decision

Good idea Wumbly - think I'll try the food diary again.

The sosh was in the previous week as I'm going Sunday to Sunday. I tend to gain after them (I know this from previous experience) so if anything I was rather hoping I might sneak a bit of that loss into this week.

Maybe it was the lack of exercise, but I did think I was being pretty good. I must have spent 5 hours exercising in one form or another - not bad going surely?

Benz - yeah - those were things to do, not meant to be in priority order - I agree 100%
