Fun filled week!

Well Im back in the gym (obviously not right now) but I did half a workout on Thursday and I didnt quite keel over and die so I have to be going in the right direction!
Friday I made the slightly dodgey decision to go to an old school reunion and I have to say I really enjoyed it!!!!!?!
It was great to see some of the old crowd again and luckily I dont seem to be the only crazy one (some are even doing marathons and half marathons!!!!) so theres hope for me yet.
This coming week is the last week of term so Im not sure how much gym time I'll get but I have a renewed buzz so Im going to make time.

Bit of a hiccup

Hey there. Well, Ive had a bit of a hiccup with the training as Ive been in hospital with bronchilitis and pleurisy and now Im out Im not really up to training just yet (breathing is an extreme sport for me at the moment) so I guess I'll just have to start from the beginning again....maybe next week.

Hopefully the guys at the gym will read this and realise that I havent given up or the poor personal trainer is going to take it personally!

Anyway I need to go and cough some more so I'll write later.

Oops I forgot!

Well, its happened already. I forgot to write up the next thrilling instalment of my training blog.............. but dont worry you didnt miss much........I went to the gym!

Kidding aside I have been to the gym (still getting snide remarks from the computer!), Ive used the pool (cozzie still fitted!) and today I met the personal trainer Paul.
He, suprisingly, doesnt think Im a lost cause and although he did his best to scare me with his list of "toning exercises" (aka a seriously painful 40 minutes) I am quietly confident that I will be fitter than last year.

Now I just have to make the time. Today I arrived at the gym smelling of TCP courtesy of my youngest trying to brain himself on the corner of the coffee table shortly before I went out - there were a few strange looks but everyone is so nice and polite they never said a word!!!! ... I wonder if they noticed the blood?
