Did a quick 3km in 17mins and then an upper body workout. The weights were really hard as this is the first proper lot I have done for 6months, I feel quite sick now!
Might have another quick run outside later as the weather is really nice, think I will leave the weights for now. Not [...]
Started off with a 3km in 17mins today, then did an upper body weights session for around 45 minutes. To finish off I did another 2km run in 12minutes. Felt good on both runs, a little tired/couldnt be bothered with the weights, thats probably because I have had a week off from them. Should be [...]
Did my usual weight session today, I’m loving doing the weights now - I used to do a circuit of the various machines and leave it at that. These days I use a couple of machines and then concentrate the rest of the session on dumbells doing various exercise. Unfortunately we don’t have bar bells [...]
Mixed up my workout today - I did a 5 min jog to warm up followed by an upper body workout on the weights which lasted around 40mins. I then did 30mins on the cross trainer at a steady pace and then 8 minutes of HIIT. To finish off I did some stretches and an [...]
Did a hard workout today on the weights followed by 10 minutes cross trainer and then 10minutes HIIT. The HIIT is really hard if you do it properly and I was exhausted - I do 1minute easy followed by 1 minute really hard, I do this 5 times and its more than enough.
After that I [...]
Did a good workout today with the weights - feel all weak and trembly now!

Looking forward to my run tommorow - got to be strong though and only let [...]
Started off today with a small run of 1 km to warm up and then hit the weights, doing upper body, chest, back, abdominals and squats for my legs. Now Im back running I will just do weights once or twice a week to maintain the muscle I built during my lay off running.
Im also [...]
Been ages since I have logged anything on here, unfortunately I have been injured again so haven’t been doing much running. I have had ITBS which isn’t too painfull but will not go unless you lay off the running for around 6 weeks which is what I have been doing. I have been still going [...]
Last week and this week I have been doing some running in the gym on the treadmill, has been going really well and each time I have been picking up the pace. I have a niggling injury in my left leg which feels like some sort of tendon or ligament problem - Ive just got [...]
Last night I played tennis for about an hour and a half, I used to love playing tennis when I was a kid and surprisingly Im still good at it! I have played 3 times now, winning every game. The first time I went, the next day I had really sore shin muscles and arm [...]
