    good 150 squats for breakfast 00:10:54

    Good morning people! I did 150 bodyweight squats and now I can't walk. Yay!

    Started with about 5-10mins yoga to the sounds of James Blake. I'm a touch obsessed with him at the moment.

    great 3x (20x squats 20x burpees) 00:09:45

    Strong and solid today! Best set of burpees ever I think. For me, that is. It's all relative.

    I warmed up with just 3 slow sun salutes. May make this common practice.

    great Up and down the Cook's River 6 km

    I finished work early today and was wise enough to bring my running gear - so off I went to the Cook's River near Canterbury Rd, 3km up and 3km back. I was aiming for slow and steady and I got... read more

      Good to see you are running again - injuries are so annoying. It is great yo be able to do what you enjoy even if you have to hold back.

    good Saturday's Parkrun 5 km 00:35 11:11 pace

    Lovely to have Emily running with me - really I'm into running for the social side now, pushing the pace didn't seem to motivating (though coffee would have come a little faster...)

    Got home, put on my shoes, ran. 20 mins out and back. 2 short pauses for traffic/catching breath (not inc in time)

    Pretty happy with this! Considering I've not run much at all this year...

      Oh yeah. I often cry at the end of a big race. I think it is all the intense effort put into it, and giving it everything, sweating, effort, that makes the soul release....yoga, end of a race. Kind of like when, you know, at the end of a "special cuddle". If you know what I mean. I'm sure there are similarities. :-)

      The word 'release' comes to mind :P

      Also, getting regularly whipped by the skipping rope hurts really badly...
