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 don't believe this is me...

For the second day running I was up bright and early to go running. After feeling pretty rubbish yesterday due to a poor night's sleep I was in much better shape today and extended the run to some 36 minutes. I also managed just over an hour of cycling as well, nothing too hard, just easing the body gently back into a regular training regime. A reasonable day diet wise, nothing excessive (except maybe the cream cake at dinner!). The first real test will be when I get home this weekend to see what the Scales of Truth tell me about my first week of training. Will it be a "Hit" or a "Miss"?
