Walking this Week

This week I did about 30 minutes of walking during some of my lunch breaks. It was just above freezing at that point.

Then this afternoon I did 45 minutes of walking, it was after 1:30pm and it was still foggy.




You can only just about see the supermarket and shopping centre behind the trees.




The footpath and trees between the fog.


It was quite pleasant being wrapped up in a nice warm coat, hat and gloves. My new coat even has a pocket on the arm for a mobile but my new MP3 player fitted in their easily which made it a nice walk.

Weekly Update

This week I did over 2 hours of training with 25% of this being swimming and the rest running. This was not helped by me getting a pain in my shoulder muscle which is now better after resting.

I did who ever do about 70 minutes of walking which was not included in the above total.

Weekly Weigh-in

This week I have gained another 3/4 lb (0.3 Kg) with my % body fat remaining the same. This is better than expected as since the last weigh in I have had 2 christmas dinners, chips and a lot of party food.

But this week I have done a few runs in the cold with a number of layers on which kept me nice and warm.

However tonight's match which I was going to be an assistant referee was cancelled due to a frozen pitch. So I can't use my new premiership style referee kit or new sat nat yet.

Weekly Update

This week I did 2.5 hours with 20% being swimming and the rest being running.

The running was in freezing conditions and the second run of the week I felt my right hamstring tighten, so I stopped training in that session earlier than planned.

My planned football match was cancelled today, so that planned time training was not done.

Hopefully next week I should be able to do some more training.

Weekly Weigh-in

This week I have gained 2 oz (0.1 Kg) and my % body fat increased by 1.5%.

The training is still at a low volume although it is starting to gradually increase but was affect by me having the flu during the week.

Weekly Update

This week I only did 1 hour of training with a quarter of this being swimming and the rest running.

This was not helped by me having flu for the last 3/4 days and therefore did no training during this period.

Weekly Weigh-in

This week I have gained 3 3/4lb (1.7 Kg) with my % body fat the same.

I think this was due to weigh in last week was after an hour long run so may have been dehydrated at that point, also I did less exercise.
