Month: January 2012

  • WTF am I doing?

    I started the second month of Insanity today. Fit Test and Max Interval Circuit. This is why they call it “Insanity”. Oh. My. Fucking. God. Admittedly, I struggled through the Fit Test. It took me ages to get my breath back between each move. But my results were good. 🙂 Move Fit Test 1 Fit…

  • To the Future!

    I’ve got some good motivation in the next few months to stay focused on all my goals: Chevron 7.8 is the last weekend of February. Amanda Tapping – need I say more? <3 I’m seeing Florence + The Machine with my lovely, gorgeous princess of a friend the first weekend of March! I have been…

  • Withdrawals…

    Ugh, I am going through withdrawals! Exercise, definitely! With the exception of a hike and a walk last weekend I haven’t done any and I’m missing it – big time. Monday I’m back to it thankfully. I have an annoying pain in my neck right now which makes it a bit difficult to do anything…

  • I’m not giving up, I’m just giving in

    My, my this week has been a killer. It certainly didn’t go as planned for me. I spent Monday night and Tuesday in Belfast with a few colleagues for our annual meetings, which thankfully all went smoothly. But once I landed at Bristol and was enroute home at 9pm… that’s when things start going badly.…

  • Migraine, Migraine Go Away…

    I’ve been quiet this past week, mostly due to migraines. Both Tuesday and Wednesday it was all I could do to come home from work and get straight into bed: no lights, no sound, just rest and hope the migraine goes away! I’ve been extremely exhausted this week, too. Possibly from overdoing … everything, which…

  • Gone Sleepin’

    Happy Saturday! With my exhaustion yesterday, I was glad to be able to push through my workouts. Once they were done I managed to crawl upstairs and collapse in a heap on the bed and didn’t move for about an hour! I half slept, half rested, but was really grumpy from being over tired and…

  • Week 1… Done!

    The first week back after time off is always the hardest! I kept up with Insanity workouts and even made it to the gym for a workout and an abs sesh on top of it. I am super exhausted today though, and work was a bit of a struggle I must admit. I have a…

  • Inspiration!

    Here is my Inspiration Board for this year. There’s a lot LESS on it this year compared to last year’s board. I decided insteading of just making a collage of everything I want to do EVAR… I would focus this year on a few things that are important. Complete Insanity – If you’ve been reading…

  • Insanity 15 Day Fit Test

    Today I had my 15 Day Fit Test! I was really pleased with the results. I did at least the same, if not better on every move. Move Fit Test 1 Fit Test 2 Switch Kicks 86 88 Power Jacks 34 34 Power Knees 80 101 Globe Jumps 7 9 Suicide Jumps 4 5 Push-Up…
