    #Janathon Day 26 – Getting it out of the way early

    Today an engineer was coming to fix my boiler. The hope being that we could actually have hot water without having to have the heating on, which was the random problem it had suddenly developed. Not SUCH a problem in January, but in June it might be a bit more annoying. Our time slot was…

    There is nothing more guaranteed to give me a little bit of gym swagger than some shiny new kit. I actually remember buying my first proper running kit (once I decided the old pyjama bottoms weren’t cutting it anymore). I ordered a pair of capris and a running top with a cute keyhole design and…

    #Janathon Day 25 – I Haven’t Failed Yet

    To be honest I’m getting a bit annoyed with those TomTom points at this point in Janathon. Knowing it doesn’t consider weights proper exercise I thought I’d wear my watch all the way to and from the gym today. There’s some big old hills, especially on the way home and it’s a total of a…

    #Janathon Day 24 – Running in the Rain

    Well, I really know how to pick my days to go for a run rather than the nice cosy gym don’t I? The weather today is pretty horrible, so horrible that I’m anticipating a bit of a battle to get my super fussy Pugs out of the door when it comes to Walkies time. Actually,…
