    1 August - official rest day - I am donating blood so won't be able to exercise however I have been told that when you donate blood the body uses 500 cals to replenish it - does this count as exercise ;-) - Managed to get in a nice brisk walk before donating blood ;-)

    3 August - had guests for the weekend so didn't get any exercise in today
    4 August - quick 30 min wlak fitted in today

    Rita, I am so sorry to hear of your daughters accident. Glad you could be there with her. And glad to see you back here with us again. I would hardly call emotional turmoil "rest." You take care of yourself too, OK?
