Day 91 - Tired of Being Sick

July 6th, 2008 No Comments

Exercise Summary: 6.62 km in 40m 57s

Day 27 (a) - Ready, Fire, Aim!

May 4th, 2008 No Comments

It’s the weekend and the temptation to be slothful raises its head. My intake yesterday wasn’t bad but it wasn’t strictly diet focused. So I need to up the exercise. (I’m blogging from bed so what does that tell you?)
Exercise yesterday was good though:

4km run/walk
800m swim

The swimming effort seems to continue to burn [...]
