Not perfect, but moving in the right direction

The word perfect is probably not a good choice for this blog title, as i dont belive is trying to be perfect, I dont think such a thing exists, which means you will always fail.  Trying to be amazing, or outstanding is better than trying to be perfect.  Anyway……

Last week I did a few runs, finishing the week with a nice 8 mile run with my brother in law.  I also manged to get on the bike a few times at the gym racking up some miles (which is a start).

However I didn’t do enough running and no where near enough biking.  So although I am moving in the right direction by doing weekly exercise I am not getting in enough of it.  This is mostly down to having quite a bit on at work, and this weeks going to be much worse I think.

One solution I am going to try after my 100 mile bike ride is to run to and from work, about a 16 mile round trip, that should be a very interesting month. I cant even bike to work this week as I am out of the office traveling alot this week. Arg!

I am also noticing that although I am exercising more than I was, my nutrition is off base, I feel quite week and tired a lot of the time.  I know this means I am not getting the right nutrients in my diet, but again I am not finding the time to address (despite the fact that we all have the same 24 hours).

Tasks for this week:

  1. Addresses what I eat and drink from this week moving forward.
  2. Schedule in exercise and stick to it

  1. Hi Simon

    Great blog. Your tasks for this week are very apt to me, the diet / nutrition thing is really tricky I find. It really does take planning ahead to make sure that you’re getting the right stuff and I have the same issues re: tiredness, I also must factor in a healthy diet!

    Best of luck with everything you’re doing, sounds fab.

  2. Its finding the time to fit it all in, thats part of the reason for doing the blog (to keep me on track). On the flip side i now have to find time to blog as well as thinking of something “interesting” to blog about.

    Good luck with your run, I am trying to think of a run challange myself…

    Simon
