The “J” Word

“J” is for jump, juggle, jiggle, juniper, jelly, jack….and Janathon.  If you haven’t heard of it then where have you been?  You’ve got Google don’t you?  Type it in and see what comes up. Anyway, I’ve decided to give it a go again this year, however after my dedication and hard work last January I’ve [...]

Back & Running

It’s been a long time since I’ve added anything new to this blog of mine but today I have decided to blow the dust off the site and start contributing again. I haven’t been writing, running or doing much of anything I’m afraid.  I’ve lost so much motivation that it was difficult to climb out [...]

Trion:Z

I was contacted around the beginning of April and asked if I would like to try out a Trion:Z Dual Loop Bracelet and review it here on my blog.  I’m a huge sceptic when it comes to things like negative ion therapy or magnetic therapy but I’ve read about these bracelets in the past so [...]

In The End

In the end, I end up writing my last blog post of Janathon whilst on the train back from London. I’m happy to report that by posting this to my blog that I have fully competed Janathon. God I’m good. And so are all the others that have taken part. We’re all freaking amazing! That’s [...]

Penultimate Day

Are we there yet?  Nope.  Are we there yet?  Nope.  Are we there yet?  NOOOOO!  Just one more day to go and I will have fully completed Janathon by running/walking and blogging every single day in January.  Holy crap that’s a lot of blogging.  I’m not sure if it’s enough to win anything though because [...]

Almost There

Today started with a nice hour long walk to keep up the effort for Janathon.  I don’t know what it is about walking but I really feel it in the backs of my legs more than I do with running.  Completely different feeling in the muscles when you’re done.  Overall it was a great walk [...]

Pizza

Probably one of the worst things to eat if you’re training or trying to lose weight.  But damn I love pizza.  Pizza Hut, Dominos, who cares.  All good as far as I’m concerned. Today I did a whopping 20 mins of running this morning and then sat at a computer all day.  For dinner… pizza. [...]

The Plan

I’m planning on keeping up the effort and completing some 10k events over the summer.  I’m also building up to the Reading Half Marathon in March, but I was thinking that maybe I should do another half marathon at the end of the summer/autumn time.  The one that really comes to mind is the Royal [...]

Running Out

Talk about ticking off the days!  I don’t know about anyone else but I’m getting tired.  Very tired.  I know these blog posts are getting a little (a lot) repetitive but I can’t help it.  This morning I got up again and fully intended to do an easy run of about 50 mins or so and [...]

Getting Tired

I’m feeling very lazy today. So lazy that I can’t even be bothered to fire up the mac and write this blog post. I’m currently on the sofa with my feet up and my Slendertone belt on. My son is watching tv and my lovely wife is messing around on the internet. It’s all good. [...]
