Exercise Regime Continues
You may have noticed a lack of entries about my new fitness regime for a few days… Don’t worry, I haven’t given up on it before the end of January. I decided to take a few days off running after a little groin strain last Wednesday, but did have a fairly active windsurfing session on Friday afternoon. I met a local student Andy at the train station after he’d caught the train complete with all his kit from Aberystwyth and for a change went out windsurfing from the middle of Borth Beach. I don’t very often sail from here as it means driving down with my kit rather than my usual walk across to the beach with my kit on a wheelbarrow, but I’m glad I made the effort as it turned out to be a really good sail. Well powered up and with some nice waves to play on. Anna and Morgan even stopped off on their way home for a little watch.
We were then away for the weekend so my rest from the training continued. I have however attempted a little run today, but after about a mile there was a bit of discomfort in the strained muscle so I thought it would be best to stop and walk home… I did get my heart rate up to a ridiculous 211bpm though! I shall try anice easy bike ride this afternoon instead I think.
Anna probably won’t forgive me for mentioning this, but her fitness drive to get ‘fit for snowboarding‘ is supposed to start today… I wonder what exercises she’ll be doing?

Does “running” round Morrisons in my lunch hour count? Probably not but it looks like that might be it today. I have found a nice gentle get fit programme to prepare me though so I might try some of it’s stretching and warm up exercises later on, once Morgan has gone to bed (as long as Al doesn’t laugh to much….he might even benefit from joining in).
OK.. I’ll join in, but I’m not as flexible as I used to be, despite high doses of Glucosamine, Chondroitin and Cod Liver Oil.
