Fitness / Life Update...

It's been the best part of a week since I posted about fitness, so here's how it's been going.

Jogging has been going well. We go every weekday, not at weekend (my friends didn't want to). But the main part is I've stuck to it so far, and feel better for it. On Friday we managed to complete an entire jogged lap of the park, and now I am keeping track with my Garmin I can see that our pace is improving steadily. Sadly the snow melting has made things a bit boggy, but it's still good.

I've kept with the daily mini-workouts, and while I haven't had another larger one since (I've literally been working constantly in my free time) I feel like I'm improving, all ready to up to 20pushup 40sittups in the morning. Hopefully having another larger workout if I get some free-time in my schedule.

I've been eating healthier recently, taking more time to make a larger healthier meal and then go for quick re-heats of it for subsiquent meals. the time management is roughly the same over time, but the content is better. I'm also able to afford smoothie again which is a big bonus.

As far as consumption of fluids is going, I know I meant to drink 2litres/day, but I've only been managing 1.5/day. I don't personally see this as a failure, the intake has upped significantly, and while my bladder doesn't really approve, I feel good for it.

Nothing on the whiteboard front. But I stopped looking when ebay didn't insta-yield perfect results lol.

I have held fire on the sleeping pills, and also the sleeping pattern. In the past 4 days I've only had a few hours a night. Been working myself hard and burning the candles, I'm thinking another reset at the weekend coming, be it stay-up and reset or pill/alcohol induced coma reset I'm not sure yet, we'll see. But while I like being up late, it's not great considering it's now approaching 3am and I have lectures in the morning... we'll see.

So that's the update. More to come soon I'm sure.

PS

I've also decided that the QOTD/LOTD are most likely going to be a twitter exclusive thing, so follow me @quotesandrants or hit the like button and check the facebook page for both feeds combined.
