I have completely forgotten to update this in over ten days! Inconceivable.
Day 28 - hip opening yoga. I still haven’t managed to find a routine that’s quite up to Adriene’s deep hips one that’s behind the paywall, but this wasn’t a bad runner up. Really need to do hip stuff more frequently!
Day 29 - weird day where the kids had a vaccine trial appointment that should have taken 60-90 minutes and we ended up being there for over six hours. Time stopped to have any meaning. At the point where eldest had to sit and wait 30 minutes in case of any reactions, other child and I went for a walk because we were so desperate to just get out of there. Lovely sunset though.
Day 30 - total body strength dumbbell workout.
Day 31 - finished as we started with a run with Kate, same route. Slightly faster but I’m not going to read anything significant into that.
Reflections… I’m still not sure if continuing on the days where I didn’t feel like it was positive or negative. Definitely positive in terms of ‘testing your own strength and overcoming adversity’ type stuff but it didn’t necessarily feel like I was getting fitter. Will I do it again? Well as it turns out PJ has an ‘Unstoppable’ challenge for February that is basically… exercise every day, because apparently Feb is the month when people tend to give up. I’m definitely not going to be every day about it - if I want to, I will, if I don’t, I won’t.
