Day 159 – Week 23 – 23 mins (15)
My last morning in Berlin, and impossible to go for a jog round the park – as a fully swinging fruit and veg market emerged overnight.
Instead, I managed a good 15 minutes of fast walking, maybe more, as I suddenly remembered I had to try and get a packet of a particular kind of German sweets for a work colleague before going home. I didn’t have that long before I needed to head to the airport, so I was walking at a cracking pace as I tried three different supermarkets in the area.
Unfortunately, the mission was unsuccessful. When the third shop didn’t have them, I had to give up and get ready to go. But I certainly managed to get my heart rate up as a result.
Back home now, and looking forward to getting back into the usual routine.

Day 158 – Week 23 – 23 mins (10)
OK -did slightly better on the strength and stretching today – managing ten minutes. But still really feeling quite weak and lethargic when I’m doing it, and thus throwing in the towel before the end.
I seriously think it must be the bizarre diet I seem to be living off since I’ve been here – not having my usual smoothies, salad and veg etc. Either that – or just having to try and make myself be understood in a country where I don’t speak the language must be taking it out of me.
But last day tomorrow, then back home and back into the swing of it…
