July 2010 - We're all in this together

RE: July 2010 - We're all in this together
Excellent news from Sussex about Sweder, Tom, and our fitter friends managing the Seven Sisters yesterday. As ever, I'm still a long way behind. Managed my first spin session in months this morning. Have actually been trying to get into a class for more than a week now, but they've become annoyingly popular. Booking starts 24 hours before, and if you don't call within that first hour, you've lost the chance.

Spin is great, though no substitute for a proper run. But getting back to 'proper run' condition means me shedding a shedload, and this is what spin is good for. The sweat rolls off you, and is probably as good a fat-burner as anything. At the start of the month, I set myself a target of losing 5 pounds. With a week left, I've actually GAINED 2 pounds, so now have to lose 7 in 7 days. Not an especially healthy target insofar as you're supposed to opt for slow and steady weight loss, but I might as well give it a go. I often find the first week or two of a weight-loss campaign can produce quick results as there is so much excess to lose. So no beer this week, and will aim to do at least 2 more spin sessions, plus cycling and the possibility of a plod.
