Fatness, Fitness and Forgetfulness
We went to Ikea recently. That's bad enough news on its own, but this time we picked up some bathroom scales. Needless to say, the inevitable weigh-in yielded bad news so I'm now in the midst of a bid to lose 9 lbs.As a result, we're doing two things to motivate us:
1. Running in the Manchester Treeathlon, a 5km run in October, which is forcing us to go out and do a little jogging every couple of nights.
2. Trying to use the bike a bit more often.
On both fronts, I've decided to record my efforts on my own MapMyRide.com profile, which you can look at by following the link. If you're a member, connect with me on there why don't you? I often forget to log my runs for a few days, but generally we're doing well and it's even got to the stage where a few nights without exercise cause a bit of uneasiness!
The best bike loop I've found from our place so far is mapped on there, and also shown below. Let me know what you think, please!
So far, I've lost 5lbs so it's going well!
