Exercised?: Yes. 2 hours aerial obstacle course
Calories?: Yes
Tracked?: Yes

Aerial obstacle course tomorrow with daughter, her friend, my nephew and my sister. Good fun. End of course was climbing wall and a tarzan swing into cargo net.

The course was supposed to be difficult. My daughter, her friend, my nephew and sister all found the course tiring. Found I must be a lot stronger and fitter than most as my I found this less taxing than my daily walking.

Also had a minor fall when skating and realised in the morning that my wrist was inflamed and could not take much lateral pressure without inducing pain. So I strapped it for the course and it was OK. Only when I did things incorrectly did it remind me.

Good day.

Lazy day mostly round the resort. Good weather. Went out for a walk to keep body moving and mind fresh. Felt better after (as I usually do). Not fastest pace as still working out area.

Took daughter, her friend and nephew to the local carnival. Daughter is not a rides person, her friend and nephew both were though. I went on one ride (the pirate ship). Just as I remember it (not too scary for me - in some ways almost relaxing ).

Wife and daughter had to go out for the day, to I spent most of the day pottering around the resort again. Great to just relax for a change.

After dinner (and after wife and daughter got back) went for walk just on dusk. Cooler temperatures. Better to walk in and better pace.

Wrist now seem to be back to almost full strength. No longer need the support bandage and it can support my weight again (I can do push-ups again).

Have not been posting for a few days as on holidays. Still tracking and still keeping active. Amazingly not overeating (not actively trying to stay in budget, kind of happening automagically - low gluten diet helps and I also don't tend to drink calorie beverages)
