Crawling into the new year like an exhausted thing....
Oof! Just had my first PT session of the year, and have discovered that I loathe interval training.....seriously loathe it. It is hell on a crosstrainer, and I am seriously unfit!
We started with intervals on the crosstrainer and followed it with some weights stuff (upper body) with the result that I am exhausted (still, I didn't sleep well last night so was seriously tired to start), and have had to have a little lie down before I can contemplate doing my food shopping for the week.
My mother and sister arrive this afternoon for a visit for a few days, and the weather is closing in just in time. It is going to be a little warm, but overcast, so something approaching muggy - though anyone who has lived in the northern part of the country woukd look at you with bemusement if you used the word humid.
So the word for this year is persistance. I shall apply that to everything. And my goals? Simple - good quality sleep, eat well, stress less, ensure appropriate quality exercise, and find something to smile about every day.
Today's smile moment - the music Lochie (on reception) was playing at the gym - always good :)
