First week back into “training” this week. Went out on Sunday, Tues and Thurs – just taking the old short course of just 2.5 miles taking around 23 mins, which is not too fast. But at least it means I am back out on the road, in the early chill and getting back to business.
Took some time to arrange a membership of living well this week also, after some mucking around I finally agreed on a price of £180 for the minimum of six months. They wanted me to sign up for a year, but they were not about to turn down the cash!. Managed to get a 9 pound a month discount thanks to the boys being employed in the Hilton Hampton, so £30 a month peak time user.
My problem is when to go when it will be quiet, looks like Tues and Thurs are best days, so need to reschedule meetings in work to make sure I can get down at the right times. I went there just after two, and there were a load of wrinklies in the pool and multiple people using the gym. One of them, who was particularly ripped took a casual glance at me, probably feeling sorry for me. But then he did the same later on, made me a little self conscious – although I think he might be one of our postmen, so he may be thinking where have I seen him before – otherwise I shall be careful…
Gog’s came yesterday and seem pretty good, although my eyes are so bulbous they touch the inside of the glass, which isn’t great. But we’ll give them a go and see. Final piece of the puzzle is the ear plugs which have taken a while to get here, hopefully will be able to get down there next Tues.
So to start:
