Wow…it’s been a while
Far out! I cant believe it has been so long since I have blogged! April! Seems like a million years ago! I have been meaning to but just haven’t quite got there! BUT! We are here now and a LOT has happened since I last wrote….all of which I will get to in due time.
For now, the reason I am writing. The main reason is to just get back to writing. I love it, find it a good practice and whilst all of these entries will be good, the practice of doing it daily WILL produce some gold. Secondly, it is 100days till I turn 41 and celebrate my 10year vegan anniversary. Anyone who knows me knows I like count downs, days challenges and working toward a goal. SO, for the next 100days, I am having a crack at the 75 Hard Challenge (but 100days). Basically the premise is 2x 45min workouts per day, follow a diet rigidly, drink 2l of water a day, take a progress picture and read 10pages of a book a day. I am adding in writing a blog a day, journaling and being phone free from 4pm to 7am. I am well aware that this is not going to be easy but that is kind of the point. Big shifts before the big 4-1.
Aside from that ‘little challenge’, since writing I battled a nasty achilles injury, went to Italy and Austria with the family, ran (nearly died) at Laverado and have been working like a mad man. Its been a pretty wild but fun ride mostly! I am back training solidly now and focused on getting back the consistency I have always been known for. I am on week four of 100k a week and plan to increase 25k per month for the next four months. I have Glasshouse 100miler in five weeks and have also applied for Coast 2 Kosci (10years since I first ran it!) in December.
So, overall, things are rolling. Work is hectic and we are short staffed but I am filling gaps and putting in plenty of time. Good for the savings. Life is good and this first blog is basically to say I am still alive, still striving for better every day and loving each moment and the challenges they may bring.
I’m looking forward to taking you along with me for the next 100days. Keep me accountable and lets achieve some big results! Rock and roll baby. Consistency + Commitment
