Janathon 2013

 
I'm not sure what's going to be harder - doing exercise everyday and logging it or blogging about it afterwards.

In terms of where I'm starting from in 2013, 2012 was a good year for me weight-wise. I was more disciplined about what I snacked on (and what I didn't), I did exercise relatively regularly and I dropped from 17 stone to 14 stone 8.75lbs. Whilst the good news is that I'm now only 1 stone away from a healthy BMI, I'm under no illusions that the next stone is likely to be the hardest.

Signing up for the Sport Relief mile last year gave me something to work towards and I know there's a Black Country half marathon in July and a Birmingham half marathon some time in the autumn. Whilst there's a part of me that would like to give it a go, there's another part of me that doesn't think I'm ready for it.


In terms of yesterday, for Christmas the kids got scooters from their Grandparents who had come down to see us for new year. @Stellian wanted some peace and quiet to be able to cook lunch, so the adults went for a walk whilst the children went for a scoot over to the Sheepwash nature reserve. It was a lovely sunny day and not too cold and apart from Gillian, who managed to fall off her scooter, a nice time was had by all.

So that's my Janathon underway. Details at runkeeper
