I shall start by saying....it hasn't exactly been a "hit the ground running" scenario since I returned from holiday as far as the gym goes. After nearly 2 weeks off and a few....let's say, less than "conscious" eating and drinking decisions I am a little scared. I am feeling okay but I have felt the backwards slide a little. Not sure if this is because... can I confess, doing nothing for a week felt like heaven, who would want to leave that place? I did read just recently that if you stop it only takes a short time to lose condition. Not sure about this fact, I put it to test.

Kickboxing, 9am last Friday - first time class, 3 minutes late, 30 Burpees.....now I am in hell, heaven is far from me right now. I am now certain the article I read was nothing but the truth so help me God! I got through but not before contemplating taking my towel and never coming back!! Okay, perhaps a little dramatic but it was certainly enough to have me seriously wondering about ever taking holidays again, particularly before I turn 40.

Back into the normal routine now this week with the 5am TopRide which although I push myself, I do quite enjoy. Fitness is back on the agenda!
