NO LOVE HANDLES ALLOWED!

'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.' Theodore Roosevelt 23 April 1910

I went to Cambridge University ...

No, I really did. Just for a couple of hours to attend a lecture put on by the Military Education Committee of the University of Cambridge entitled "Pakistan and Afghanistan: Crises with Global Implications" given by Sir Hilary Synnott KCMG. Very interesting and certainly broadened my understanding of the problems in the region. Doesn't help my training hours though, does it?

After last night's turbo session I had a gentle run to the pool this morning, 30 mins of swimming and drills and then a genle run back to the office.
