Going for the burn
So today was the first day of the new training regime. The plan? To try and regain some of the lost ’shape’ and muscle that I had a few years ago. I don’t think it will happen very easily as I’m no spring chicken these days (quiet at the back!) but I’m hoping it will be fun nonetheless. Plus, it gets me off the PC and means I get at least some exercise through the week.
I really have a lot of catching up to do, though. Lyn has been training once or twice a day for quite some time so she’s got quite a head start. Mind you, we have different long term goals… I don’t think Lyn is really all that keen on packing on the muscle and is therefore concentrating on her cardio and aerobic conditioning. And, of course, with the new training regime comes the diet. Yes, the diet. In all truth, it’s as much about the food you eat as it is the training so I guess the calorie and protein intake will be climbing steadily over the coming weeks. I’d better start buying milk by the crate, too… one or two litres will not really cut it. And seeing as we both love fresh chicken I expect the fridge and freezer to be jam-packed full of skinless and boneless fillets too. Mmmm, chicken. Jacket spuds. Rice and peas. Banana protein shake. Peppermint tea.
I’m not sure if I’m buzzing because I’ve had my first workout (in terms of the new regime) or because I’ve got all that lovely food to look forward to).

Random road trips? Well, we have a few events and drives organised with the Club (including our Scotland Tour) and I’m sure there will be other trips out here, there and everywhere. I may even go solo and go exploring myself. That sounds like fun.
I’ll see if I can get some pics sorted soon – just for you!

Well yes… you = hectic for sure!
I’ll have to see about a run eastwards sometime so that I/we can sample some eastern beaches and hospitality. Random weekends can often be the best ones. They are so, er, random?! As for the photos, I’ll need to whip it out and start snapping away. When I find a suitable subject I’ll let you know and you’ll be able to stare in awe at the majesty of the truly wonderful sight before your very eyes. Or something like that.
