Turbo Attack!

What a busy day I have had but I feel so much better already for getting back into this exercise lark - I'm feeling almost human for the first time in weeks!

This afternoon once I had finished work I took the dog out for a walk along the old canal path and river. It was a lovely bright afternoon although I had to be careful of not slipping on random patches of ice and snow which were still lingering on sheltered areas! I managed 2.38 miles which can be seen here!


Once I got home I went straight into doing the Core Challenge and I managed to complete this is 13 minutes 20 seconds which is slightly slower than yesterday's efforts.  I blame this on the dog getting over excited licking and jumping on me thinking I was playing some strange game with him! I must remember to lock him out tomorrow!



Later on I had my daughter's parents evening! A proud mummy moment. I don't care if people think I'm boasting (I am....shamelessly) but I'm so proud of my daughter today! She is in the lower sixth studying towards her A Levels. She did exceptionally well in her first set of AS exams and all the teachers are singing her praises! One even said they would love a class full of Jessica's ... hummmmmmmmmm not sure I would want a house full!

Once home I went on my Cycle Turbo Trainer and did some speed interval training in a very easy gear so as not to put any pressure whatsoever on my ankle. I really enjoyed being back doing "hard" exercise and managed 9.10 miles which can be seen here. I finished off with my physio ankle exercises on my "bad" leg!

By the way - I am feeling proud of myself too! 

Tomorrow is a running day! Bring it on!
