I’m painfully aware that I haven’t done much in the way of actual “blogging” recently about what I’m upto (not that anyone seems to have noticed, lol). So here’s a whistle stop run down:<\/p>\n
Work:<\/strong> busy, busy, busy! I’ve been pitching to some new clients over the last few weeks, and have won one new contract, which is nice. But it has taken up a load of my time. I’m also launching a new website of my own shortly, and am actively working on 2 other potential new lines of business, which I can’t currently talk about.<\/p>\n All in all I am working 10-12 hours a day<\/strong> at the moment, generally from 8am to 9-10pm, only stopping to eat and spend time with the family when the kid gets home from school.<\/p>\n Crossfit:<\/strong> has come to a complete halt. My golfers elbow<\/a> has put a halt to almost all exercise and I’ve spoken to Mark at Crossfit Manchester and explained that I won’t be going down again for a while. The simple reason is that I can do virtually none of the crossfit exercises<\/a> and so it becomes rather depressing going to the gym and seeing everyone else do what I can’t. If you take away the exercises that make Crossfit what it is, it’s also rather dull to be honest.<\/p>\n Still I am actively seeking the cure for Medial Epicondylitis<\/strong> and have so far tried \/ am trying:<\/p>\n I am however doing some runs. I’ve got route round the block, which is just over a mile, and am running that 2-3 times a week, depending on when I wake in the morning. I’m hoping that this will improve my running performance when I do return to Crossfit.<\/p>\n The Zone Diet:<\/strong> My current weight is 12 st 12 (180 lbs \/ 82 kg) and I am currently wearing jeans that were too small for me the day I bought them from Ford market in West Sussex some 8 years ago! Yes I kept a pair of too small jeans (2 actually) for 8 years<\/strong>, that if nothing else, is evidence that I’m an optimist at heart! I continue to either maintain weight or lose the odd pound here and there, on the following formula: Strict zone for breakfast, lunch and pm snack. A roughly zone diet \/ lower than “normal” carb tea. Then at least half the week, all bets are off in the evening and the wine and\/or chocolate is broken out. Bad I know, but I’m working on it.<\/p>\n Mostly that’s it, my life at the moment is consumed by work and injury recovery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m painfully aware that I haven’t done much in the way of actual “blogging” recently about what I’m upto (not that anyone seems to have noticed, lol).
