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

Another Better Week

This week I clocked up 6 hours and 15 minutes of training, consisting of cycling, running and core work. Notice anything missing? Yes, yes, yes, I will get to the pool this week, honest. Although my training hours aren't massive I feel the need to point out that I am also getting in a minimum of one hour a day of walking, and usually this is more like 90 minutes. And 6.15 is the most I have clocked up so far this year There have been some good sessions in there as well. I will admit to drinking more red wine than is good for me of late, but it's been good stuff (Carmenere is my favourite at the moment) so that makes it all OK. Doesn't it?
