it's been a while


since i last posted. despite a few great weekends away i've still been feeling fed up and generally a bit useless. jane's was away last weekend with vikki and i sat at home waiting for the proverbial kick up the arse. wanting my next post to be positive. and it finally came...

i decided to hand my notice in last monday-i haven't got a start date yet but i'm sure everything will work out, somehow i'll make it. on monday i implemented my '33 day freedom plan'. the aim- get back to enjoying running and pedaling, loose the extra pounds and stop the wobbly bits wobbling, prepare for the new job and more importantly be ready for some ridiculous challenges in september.

i'm on day 5, have managed to loose 3 pounds, been for a run and had 2 excellent rides. and most importantly rode the steps to the old railway line. this means nothing to anyone else but i've never had the courage to commit to them before and have always stood a the top watching chris and simon negotiating their way down. the worm is slowly turning!

All sounding very positive, good for you. I like the sound of the 33 day freedom plan!

3lb in 5 days sounds like torture! I hope you haven't given up the good things in life like Cake and Jelly babies!

I love that pic of the Scandal!

don't worry the freedom plan still involves cake-i've just put an end to my 'otherwise sedentary lifestyle'!

go Kate! nice one on the steps.

i'm jealous about your freedom days and future adventures. I need to think of some new ones for myself i think.

if you need a partner in crime let me know.
