I can't believe I have made it through the full month without a day off exercise, looking forward to getting a rest day in, but it won't actually be until some time next week!I enjoyed my run in the morning, a nice 7 miles to work in Brooks Pure Grit shoes that I am trialing … Continue reading It’s the end, but it doesn’t have to be Day 31 Janathon

Long run & then some Day 29 Janathon
Up and at 'em this morning, a hearty bowl of porridge to fuel the tank and it was time to get out for my long run of the week, 16 miles. How lovely it was to be out in some milder temps for a change! Wasn't sure what route to take but thought it best … Continue reading Long run & then some Day 29 Janathon
Runfit sprints Day 28 Janathon
My goal for today was to make it to Bioticfit Runfit in the evening, so not to overdo it during the day, I cycled to and from work, so 17 miles altogether and made it to the class.I need to make sure I get to the Runfit class once a week as I am useless … Continue reading Runfit sprints Day 28 Janathon
Muscle mania Day 26 Janathon
Woke up to a blanket of snow that had turned into ice, our planned ride was cancelled as conditions were labelled atrocious and the fact that the park run had been cancelled, I thought an indoors session would be perfect. I did a full hour of weights and glute work, so much my legs had … Continue reading Muscle mania Day 26 Janathon
Toenail issues Day 24 Janathon
As fellow runners will attest to, running can cause havoc with your nails. I am fully used to have black toenails and one or two that disappear for a bit, and the fact that the duvet sitting on top of your toes actually hurts 😁. I normally deal with this by keeping my nails trimmed … Continue reading Toenail issues Day 24 Janathon
Taper time Day 16 Janathon
Time to taper! A perfect running day, crisp, or should I say bloody cold, and sunny, no wind....just perfect! Late start at work so headed out at 9.30 for a gentle (small steps, can't afford an injury) 4.5 mile run out through Fog Lane Park. And that's all for the day, I hate tapering!
Snowfit Day 15 Janathon
Of all the days to pick.....I managed to convince 3 of my work colleagues to try out Bioticfit on the first day that Didsbury actually got some snow! Fair play to them they not only turned up, with 3 other crazy bioticfitters, but aced it! Was super proud that they got through the full hour … Continue reading Snowfit Day 15 Janathon
As little as possible – Day 13 Janathon
After my monstrous cycle yesterday, my body determined that today needed to be a rest day. Being Janathon I couldn't completely take the day off of course, so opted for free weights. 3 reps of 5 different types of weights did the job nicely & spent the rest of the day resting my tired & … Continue reading As little as possible – Day 13 Janathon
Foggy Fitness – Day 9 Janathon
I had intended to run to work today, but I thought I would take a gamble and see what time I woke up....mmm 10 to 8, too late! Having left my bike at work, I had to steal hubby's crappy old bike and head out through the freezing fog that had settled this morning. Not … Continue reading Foggy Fitness – Day 9 Janathon
Plodding along – Day 8 Janathon
So I forgot to mention that I did cycle home last night at near midnight, so did squeeze in another 7 miles on the bike yesterday. Busy bee this morning so didn't have time to make it to my planned Bioticfit class, but did clean the house, so that certainly burnt some cals.Anyhow another late … Continue reading Plodding along – Day 8 Janathon
