| After going for a swim at our accom in Florence I found out there was a gym.... couldnt get onto any of the treadmils so tried out a cross trainer and was the biggest gumby ever!! worked up a nice sweat thou!! Was going to stay on for 30mins but the gym shut at 6pm
Havent been doing any running over the past few days, for a number of reasons, staying out too late and then having to get up too early... lots and lots of walking during most days... also some of the places havent really been running friendly, eg. Barcelona... having a great time thou!! |

| Run from the parentals to my place after dropping off Dad's car. Was nicely warmed up after the garage door wouldn't open (and then wouldn't close), so had to try and open it manually, which meant trying to pull the really high cable thingy inside the garage....needless to say it took a while!!

| Three laps of Lake Albert, bit of an effort and prob would have only done 2 if it wasn't for the company of my ipod!! Felt pretty good afterwards.
Nearly missed watching origin 3 tonight (not that it would have been a big loss...), was picking up some of Trents mates and my car broke down, just my luck 3 days before I'm going away, thankfully it was only a flat battery (need a new one thou), but still had to wait in the cold for the NRMA. |
