  • 10 Glorious Days

    Today’s been a bit of a roller coaster. This morning I was wide awake, energetic, the works – even after a night of barely sleeping and lots of pain and soreness from my workout last night. So I made an effort, I did my hair properly – it’s amazing how long it is, I don’t…

  • 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.…

  • 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…

  • 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…

  • 2011 Finale

    Happy New Year’s Eve! I love this time of year and looking forward to what the next year will bring. I’m making a huge pot of spaghetti for tonight, the sauce has been on since this morning and is in the slow cooker bubbling away. Spaghetti is one of my favourite foods, but only if…
