Ed, I think a lesson was learnt following your return to rugby!


Wednesday 24th May

5-a-side football x 1 hour 20 mins
Far to hot for a 21 stone man to play football last night, suffered with severe back and under boob sweat but was enjoyable and gets some cardio done.

To be honest mate, Iv completely lost all motivation for lifting weights at the moment. I only went as the mrs wanted to train. Enjoying the swimming a lot more. Been eyeing up doing an ironman next year. I need to train for something and I want to push myself and prove a few negative people wrong. We will see, will work on fitness up to the autumn, see where I am and make a decision.

Hope your well mate? Back ok?
