    Had a sub-par workout day today...didn't get any paddling in (mostly due to my own fault). Going to be watching the weather tomorrow to see if I can sneak some in since most of the weekend and next week may be washouts due to rain moving into the area.

    2 August: 2.00 miles glider machine (low impact)
    3 August: 2.88 miles SUP; 2.06 miles glider machine (low impact)

    Bummer about the injury, but glad you can still cycle! Take care of the injury and you will come back stronger once healed, I'm sure!

    Had a brutal paddling session today. Relatively easy paddle out (42 minutes/3.2 mph), but turned around and had a brutal headwind with a moderate chop on the water to get back (93 minutes/1.4 mph). Knew I was going to make it, but it was bit more strenuous and took much longer than I was expecting. But wanted to get some time on the water before all the rain moves into the area for the next week or so (especially since I may not be logging many miles next week due to weather).

    Sorry to hear that Machka...hope it mends...oh and well done KonaG on keeping up the post op excercise - that can be tough! It is good to see you back.

    Lots of new people doing well on their new goals - well done!

    4 august - welsh woods walk
    5 august - lovely walk along welsh coastline followed by wave jumping (exhilarating!!)
    6 august - walk in welsh hills before walking round a welsh village agricultural show (orange sheep!! Also v cute springer spaniel display - one of the dog breeds we are considering Jeannie...)

    Great to be walking in wales. Lovely scenery - all walks a bit short for my liking (90 mins or so) but a lot of rellie viaiting happening too. But I think they have all counted for the 350 goal.


    350 cals burned or more: 4 out of 6
    (45 cumulative towards 100 target)
    Atleast over 30 mins: 2
    Lazy/rest days : 0
