Definitely. Looks good. When are you thinking? And of course, those not into it can always meet us in the pub or round the campfire afterwards.

As for other middle age spread updates, I've started to go running again after a long absence. My motivation is I want to buy a new suit in the January sales. Started off doing my short 1.5 mile loop to get back into the swing of things, but aim to move on to the 5ks soonish. Already sleeping better as a result.


Well done kern.

I have lost all motivation for exercise..

I'd love to do those walks but I need to build myself up to do stuff like that.

I'm up for it, but if it's summer then it all depends on what I'm doing sports-wise.

I wouldn't mind this, but it's miles away, and probably on a day that I can't make. But if something happens then I'll try and see what I can do.

Would aim for a weekend in spring/early summer i guess.

I'd take the same route up Scafell as I did before, but do a different down and get back in on foot.

Almost ten years ago now. Winter's definitely my favourite time for walking up in the lakes.

Ha ha.

It's amazing looking at those pictures. I've aged considerably in ten years but you look more or less the same 45 years old you did back then.

Been asked to do a race report, thought I would pop it here too..

Having done a few sprint triathlons, my plan was to step up to standard distance this year. In August 2016 I entered Nottingham Relay Triathlon with 3 friends. Never go camping with full distance triathletes. I was persuaded to miss standard and go straight to middle distance. I entered Cotswold Classic. I spent 8 months improving my swim, bike and run.

On August 13th, my alarm went off at 4:30 am, I got up, forced down porridge and packed my last bits and headed down to the transition. Racked my bike and set all my stuff out. Then went and joined the long queue for the Portaloos, as once in the wet suit it was not coming off. I chatted to other triathletes, each one nervous and excited.

I headed down to the water and with three friends that entered the race with me, waited for our wave to be called. I won’t lie, I have never been so terrified. We entered the water, I felt a hand on my shoulder and stopped me starting until the melee had moved on, Thanks Mark. It gave me space to do my own swim.

I started off with my mixture of crawl and breast stroke, slowly moving round the big buoys, until I could see the swim finish. The marshals were fantastic, calling you in and then being pulled out and helped up the steps. I hate swimming and I am not confident, but I was out I had not drowned. Time for the bike.

I jogged into the transition areas, got my wet suit off, put my bike stuff on, all while eating a pork pies, all the photos show me with a pie in my gob. I set off to the mount line, got on my bike and set off on lap 1 of 2. The course was flat with a hill at mile 14. I loved the ride, completed lap 1 and started lap 2. I got to mile 50 and someone passed me, being a stubborn arse. I tried to catch him, took me to mile 55 to pass him. As I pulled into the final straight, I could hear my name being shouted and saw my friends that came to support me. That lifts you so much.

Made back to transition and racked my bike, put my running stuff on, and set off. The course was flatish 3 laps, and about 4 miles, that hurt, trying to run after 56 miles on the bike was not fun. It was great being cheered on by all the marshals, supporters and friends. The first buffet station was awesome, it had water, high5, flat coke, bananas, gels, jelly beans, jelly babies, peanuts, crisps, ginger cake, choc cake and lot more. I made to the first pass of the finish, I could see my friends, it was great. The 2nd lap came and went, the last lap, I got to 12 miles and was really struggling, and who do I see but my friend Dave, he came back for me. He ran and jogged with me till we got the red carpet and he says ‘How are your legs? ‘F**ked’ was the reply, ‘You have to sprint’ he said. So I went, not sure where it came from, not sure I have ran like that in my life.. The photo of me crossing the line is not me smiling but grimacing.

It was one of the hardest things I have done with my body to date. I faced a lot of fears, I am not a strong swimmer and that distance is just scary, the bike was better than I thought, and the run was just hell. Would I do another, oh f**k yes…. I now have a time to beat.

Get a set of these and a set of dumb bells for curls. Thats all of your upper body covered including the all important core.

Your cycling will cover leg and cardio exercise.

I've been having real problems with my right wrist (stop sniggering) when doing push ups. I got some basic push up bars and they seem to make push ups harder. Weird.

Get a pair off these.

I smashed my right wrist to bits at the end of 2014 and bought a pair of these which allow me to exercise again.

I'm being encouraged by my TKD instructor to do pushups on my fists instead of my palms, to condition the knuckles so that I don't feel pain when punching through bricks.

I hope it works, because the amount of pain I feel in my knuckles when doing the pushups is not making it easy to continue ;)

Oh, cool. So that long wrapper supports the wrist, I guess.

Also, from that guide, I have LARGE HANDS.

You’ll want to get the right ones. The size differences seem a little extreme.

Maybe that’s Jeremy Beadle’s pair.

I'm in the top 9% of all Samsung Health users when it comes to steps taken, having taken 75k in the last week, which is the equivalent of about 35 mi. I've also taken over 240k steps for the month of October so far.

At least I'm more active than I used to be, even if the jobs are driving me mad.

Probably unrelated (after only three goes) to Mr Wicks and his enthusiasm for tortuous exercise, I'm comfortably back into 32 in waist jeans and 12 stone 9.

I've gone back from 38" waist jeans to 40". Had to be done, as the flies in my old jeans would steadily work their way down as I walked. Fumbling with the zip several times during trips into town is never a good look.

What you need is a hair elastic through the zip pull end to hook around the button. #pregnantladytricks

I've gone back from 38" waist jeans to 40". Had to be done, as the flies in my old jeans would steadily work their way down as I walked. Fumbling with the zip several times during trips into town is never a good look.

What you need is a hair elastic through the zip pull end to hook around the button. #pregnantladytricks


Nice :) Until I'd got the new jeans, I went for just wearing my baggiest t-shirts, so that if the zip dropped, no-one would see anyway.

Fourth go at this Wicks thing. At risk of sounding like the newly converted: Early days, but it's good. I sweat buckets and cannot breathe at the end of it, but the cooldown works well. Sleep like a baby afterwards. MrsA and I are doing it together so we can't lazy out of it which helps.

I actually quite looked forward to it, today. Something is wrong.

:metul:

I started doing it a few years back and I loved it. I lost 3(?) dress sizes in about 5-6 months without changing my diet or owt. I only did it twice a week, too. Wasn't the Joe Wicks stuff but I imagine it's much of a muchness.

3 times a week is the aim, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday. Joe Wicks was a name bandied about at work and it was a tenner, but yeah, there can only be so many variations of it all.
