Gym

clock September 21, 2009 21:35 by author Admin
Did manage to get to the gym once in August !! Too much else going on really..... I managed a warm up on the bike, followed by 6.95kms and 10 mins on the Cross Trainer as the treadmill was busy. Saying that, the gym was fairly quiet... I did get a bit of an interrogation from Steve as to why... [More]

What a busy week !! Friday was Circuits again... followed by orienteering at the Hawth on Saturday. Circuits was good - hard work again, but fewer people this week.

The Gym

clock July 7, 2009 20:52 by author Admin
Well I did manage to get to the gym again tonight... the weather has been pretty bad all day, so there was no way I was going to go running outside ! It wasn't so bad tonight and was pretty quiet in there for after work. When I was in there for Circuits last Friday, Steve persuaded me to... [More]

Back to training too...

clock July 5, 2009 23:41 by author Admin
So the reason for blogging again is that I am back in training. No real target yet, just recovering slowly and gradually (sensibly) from an injury, which was quite nasty at the time. I went over on my ankle really badly at the British O Champs on the New Forest in Feb09.  I limped ... [More]

Another Friday and another Circuits class at the gym ! This week there were 7 of us, so numbers are on the rise ! Again Tom made us work - each station was 1 minute, unless you were on a cv one (treadmill or air stepper to start with), which was two minutes. Inbetween we had various stations ... [More]

New programme at the Gym

clock March 9, 2008 21:32 by author Admin
Last week, I'd booked a re programme session at the Gym with Tom, the Gym Manager. I thought I better had as I was trying to work from two programmes on the same card and I had no idea what I was supposed to be doing ! I also had my blood pressure checked, as we have to every six months ... [More]

So, I did manage to go to Circuits last Friday lunchtime. There were only 5 of us in the class ! Tom made us work hard though.....

Well, I did try and go to the gym on Tuesday, but I got there and it was really busy........ There were no changing room available and no cv equipment either  so I gave up and went home. Anyway, I tried again last night, a bit earlier and although it was still busy, it wasn't as busy... [More]

New Shoes !!

clock February 11, 2008 23:31 by author Admin
Having been running in my neutral Nike trainers for three years, I thought it was about time I got my gait analysed again and got some proper running shoes. Laura recommended going to the Tortoise and the Hare, near Cranleigh, so I did yesterday. Again, still lovely weather, great for a... [More]
