I am doing a Trail half marathon 12th August, and training has been very lack lustre the last couple of weeks. It's been unnaturally hot here in the UK. Found a new route in the local country park this morning though, and did 8 miles. Feels like it's back on track.12

It has indeed been pretty hot - good luck with the trail run!5 -

Mine is doing that from SUP paddling also. When I flex, I have that muscle a few inches down from the shoulder that runs along the top of the shoulder blade really show some shape. I am not sure I have ever seen it so pronounced before, even when I was younger and in really good shape. Paddling is doing a lot for my upper body. I am typically paddling 5 to 10 miles twice a week on an inflatable all around that doesn't glide well, so it is a serious workout.6 -
Fit in my old size 14 office panrs for the first time in years. Fun to wear something less baggy!17

Very random. But since I'm not so round anymore I can walk with my hands behind my back. It's the small things in life ya know.33

After a week of bemoaning slow scale progress, this morning I tried on my red dragon dress. I wanted to look good in this dress for the Christmas party season. I have squeezed into it in the past few weeks and felt sad because I never thought it would look good on me again (last worn out in 2002! π€€) Well, today it fits! In a wearable way! I mean, it will be greatly improved with another half stone off but ye gods - it fits and doesn't look awful. Who knows, I may even have shrunk out of it for the winter party season - and I hate, loathe and detest clothes shopping π For anyone worried about slow weight loss, keep checking measurements and clothes.30

so... i had my over 50's health check at my new doctors surgery last week, they check, height, weight, blood pressure,risk of diabetes, cholesterol,how much you drink, whether you drink etc etc, and work out your risk of getting cardio vascular disease, they set an acceptable risk level of 12%.... and apart from being still over weight and my BMI being 39 (at my heaviest my BMI was 68) everything else was in the green..... and my risk of getting cardio vascular disease was 6.5%...so i was pretty pleased with that. x34

A couple this week:
1 - yesterday at dinner I got full before I cleared the plate, and had to adjust my diary to account for what wasn't eaten. In my old life (pre-open-heart surgery), I would have eaten everything anyway, and been miserable afterwards.
2 - I apparently have a pulmonary embolism, and I'm still alive to tell about it...35 -
I would like to give a thumbs up or Woo to everyone for their NSV! Congratulations.10

I completed the 102nd Vierdaagse!!!! It's a 4 day, 100 mile (160 kilometer) ruckmarch throughout the Netherlands. I never thought I could do it!!! But me and my husband did it!!!!! I was rather miserable for most of it and ready to quit constantly. But I was determined to get to tell my coworkers that I finished! I've been training for about 4 months. The views were incredible, the people were wonderful, and the ice cream and poffertjes well deserved! I am so very proud of this accomplishment!!!!

OMGGGGGG.
Last Thursday: I ran a mile in class, and though I didn't log to the second, I finished sometime within the 13 minute mark. Previous fastest time, like, end of last year, was in the 15:30ish range. I'm so so so so excited about that.
Also, I climbed the Coba pyramid in Mexico last Monday. I paused a couple times to just take a deep breath and look around, but I didn't *stop* during the ascent or descent. I was huffing pretty hard at the top, but so was eeeeeverryyoonnneee else. Doing this has been a dream of mine, and I've avoided making the trip and doing it because I didn't think I could.24 -
I won a t shirt in a raffle at a stand up comedy show. They only had the one shirt. It's a size small. It fits! I used to regularly buy men's xlarge shirts. Mediums have been fitting pretty well for awhile, but fitting into a small is new and exciting!19

I paddled SUP for 3 hours non stop (except for very short water breaks; like under 30 seconds every half hour or so). Distance was 9.6 miles, which isn't great but I have a short, slow SUP.13
