A long time coming

So I managed a weekend of vague activity!!! Managed to run out of money and I've still got three weeks until I can get any more so seeing as I couldn't go out what was I supposed to do?

Sat - 10 mile bike ride from my flat to Portobello then back along the promenade (could have gone further but headwind and first bike expedition in a long time so it was far enough!)









Sun - quick hill walk with Jen (about 3 miles/1 hour) nice to get out of the city (cylced to hers and back with the walk in between)















Also managed to watch Tie me up! Tie me down!, Live Flesh, Bad Education, Talk to her (All almodovar films), Saboteur (Hitchcock) and Love actually, and break the washing machine oh and I managed to make 10 chinese dinner portions for the freezer and 5 portions of pea and parmesan risotto for lunch for the next week...have to everything in power to save money (The bill for the weekend totals £10.91...ace!)

Until next time...Lucy x

A little more activity

So i managed a few sit ups and in the name of motivation I thought I would note it down, hopefully I can manage to build momentum!

30 sit ups
2 x 20 lat pulls (forward), 20 trap extentions, 20 lat pulls (down)
30 sit ups

2 mile walk to work (uphill)

silence after the storm...

...that was portugal!

Had a wicked time with alot of boozy activity prior during and after. The fitness front is looking pretty shaky, so far since the start of October I have no activity to report except for the fact that I walked to work this morning...soooo friggin lame. Will hopefully have something to report shortly x

A poor attempt to erase the guilt

So Monday night, forgot the job application form I was going to complete this eve so decided to watch a couple of films and tidy my room...which I couldn't be bothered doing so I did a bit of conditioning instead:

30 Crunchies x 5
30 Back lifts x 5
30 Side Crunchies x 2
30 Tricep dips x 2
50 lat pulls x 1
50 pec/lat reps x 2
50 x bicep pulls x 1

Cycled to work too! 20mins (uphill) 2 miles

Was supposed to be swimming this afternoon but I'm heading back to the Shire for malky's leaving party so can't be done :-( Can't go on Sun either as will be away.

My weekends seems to be following a pattern!

People need to remind me that drinking out of a bottle (esp at a wedding) is not ladylike even if I am wearing a pretty dress! Friday night was a bit of a rightoff, Johnny T and Amy got married in Creiff, really beautiful evening.

The it was Claire's B'day on Sat pm so headed out for that, then up early to get the bus to Prestonpans for their half marathon, it was a really good event with every weather condition! A bit of a lack of



briefing for the Marshalls and the paper work provided didn't even include a route map which I think could definitely be an idea for next year, then dinner with the girls in the flat, Chloe is finally moving out so it was a farewell dinner, very tasty too and quite drunken, at 2 we were still sipping the Courvoisier and taking silly pics! I love dinner parties...need to make up for the lack of anything active this week?! xxx

The pain is ongoing!!!

Swimming again this morning:

5 min cycle to the pool (downhill)

800yds FC
3 x 200yds IM (Pull, Kick & Full (fogot my float...boo!))
200yds FC swim down

1600yds = 1463m = 30mins (got up late)

10 min cycle home (uphill)

20 min walk to work (uphill)

Just got email about swimming comps and I'm having an internal battle as to wether to enter any or not...why are decisions so difficult?

A weekend of excess

After a massively indulgent weekend (pissed in Fri pm (2pm - 12midnight) nachos lunch & beer (sat am), £16 cheese dinner (sat pm),

night on the boozy, cheese b'fast (Sun am) then more food and dvd's on Sun pm) I guilted myself into cycling to work, flat tyre and seat way too low later a very disgruntled and frustrated Lucy arrived at work, will repair for journey home.

15min cycle (2 miles - up a very steep hill!)

but at least it's down hill on the way home :-)

Uneventful week

So after a week of folding envelopes, listening to the half blood prince and some evening conditioning I managed to get to the pool again this morning!

10 min cycle to the pool,

800yds fc
6 x 200yds IM (2 x Pull/Kick/Full)
200yds swim down

2200yds = 2011.68m in 45mins

10min cycle to the flat uphill
20min power walk up hill to work

legs aren't working anymore, feel very sorry for myself and have already eaten my lunch!
