Day 198 – Week 29 – 29 mins

You know what? The Plank is really hard. Even the mini-plank that I am doing just about kills me. I think it is my nemesis.

So – that is one more challenge I will try and achieve in this lengthy experiment – by the end of my 365 days I want to have defeated the Plank, along with being able to do the splits and touch my toes!

I am not actually very confident about the splits thing. Despite daily stretching, I am not making a great deal of progress. A little – but not enough to see me making the cheerleading team anytime soon.

Still….a girl can dream…

Day 197 – Week 29 – 29 mins

I left it very late to go for my run today – it was about four o’clock before I got out the door.  And shock, horror! It felt like it was getting dark!!

With the clocks going back at the weekend, and my first day of being outside at that time, I had completely forgotten that it would start getting dark so early. The weather is so nice and warm I have been in denial that winter is almost here. It really means I am going to have to start making sure I get out earlier for those jogs.

I, of course, felt all healthy and virtuous after my run, but the trouble with doing it so late in the day, is that you get fewer hours of feeling healthy and virtuous before it’s the next day and you have to do it all again!
