A stag do, a wedding and the lurgy!

So it all started ok…….at first….

After my first post the w/c 1st October went like this:

Monday– 5miles

Tuesday– 6miles

Wednesday– 3miles- very early jog in Regents Park

Thursday- 6.2 miles- forced myself out there after a knackering day at work

Friday- slightly sore knee so did 4km of intervals on the rower.

Saturday– off road 3.2 miles before heading off to Ascot for a stag do

AND THAT’S WHERE IT ALL WENT WRONG! :-0)

Despite my best efforts to ‘moderate’ my drinking at the stag do and only go for the Saturday night it was a heavy night. After drinking (£10) Steins of beer in the German Beer Festival tent at 2pm, we moved onto various pubs in Windsor, followed by a nightclub and finished up drinking more in the hot tub back at the place we were staying. Went to bed at 2am. And that’s just what I can share!

Cue a massive hangover on the Sunday, and full on lurgy for the whole week. The following weekend was the wedding. By the way who has their stag do a week before the wedding?! Anyway, the wedding was amazing and became another massive drinking session!

So, back to square 1…..or maybe square -1.

But on the positive I have set a PB. I stepped on the scales and I am my heaviest ever. 81kg and 22% body fat! My running PB’s were set at 72kg. You have to hand it to me it takes quite a lot of commitment to put on nearly 10kg of lard!

My new commitment is no alcohol at all. Moderation is not a word my brain understands!

This sub-35mins is going to be harder than I thought!
