It wasn't till I got in the gym studio that I noticed how tanned I was - stuck out like a sore thumb! lol also my arms have gotten bigger, which was my worry as I thought all of me had gotten bigger because of eating icecream and crepes on hols. Weighed myself though and still the same as before I went Also... its sooooooo hot here, by the time I got changed and walked back to the office my hair was nearly dry :/ BB x |

I'm not a runner and would never consider myself to be one and I thought a few weeks back 10k would kill me but after today it feels very possible. If I can do it anyone can!

I'm finding that the heat really saps all your strength Had a good blast on the weights today but it was a lot harder work (and I was drinking like a fish). While I am away during the week i'm going to have to go at 6.30am otherwise I won't stand the heat in the gym as the air con is dodgy.

Depends what training you're doing really.... my Tabata training only lasts 30 mins but if you're doing SSCV ( steady state CV, jog etc ) then yes I would say an hour is needed.

Back training today after my break.
I'm reverting back to 24s for 10 weeks so some strength and stamina building. Going to be a tough few days as all I've done for the last 2 and a half weeks is swimming, which I'm not that good at.
