Hi Chris, I wouldn't say that I'm a cycling enthusiast to your degree but I do enjoy getting the old push iron out! Up until two years ago I lived in Holland, for 10 years or so, and we practically cycled everywhere; didn't have a car for the first six years! Since repatriating I'm still getting used to cycling on the good…

Just watched TBL US season 13 ep 1; this time the trainers are just Bob and Dolvett and the season theme is 'No Excuses!' The contestants first challenge was even before they got through the gates of the ranch and one poor couple got sent straight home; didn't even make it through the gates and onto the ranch! Still if…

Ok call it a mid-life crisis! :o) Anyway if anyone is interested in doing the Warrior Dash drop me a PM and lets see what we can arrange. Slay0r, thanks for the other challenges going to look into them....

Cheers Neenie and thanks for the support! Still going strong and taking it one day at a time! Thankfully my better half has also quit, she has a week on me, and she's also going strong! Watch this space! :o)

How goes it with the not smoking? I had my last one on Christmas eve and not touched once since! I decided rather than using patches etc to go cold turkey.

Due to circumstances beyond my control (or was it??) I wasn't able to/didn't do the December benchmark. The plan is to have a bash on the same circuit this weekend!

Personally I don't trust them so I use the readout from my heart rate monitor; still not 100% accurate but a damn site nearer as you load in your personal stats.

Sorry to hear about your dog. I had to put my baby to sleep a few months ago. Yen was an American Akita and I'd had for 16 years; it hurts mate so no worries! With regards to stopping smoking I had some cigs left over myself this morning and (yep colour me weak!) I smoked them! And my better half also smokes so how's about…

BFTs, CFTs and the rest! Never a dull moment.

Got to admit at the side of you my time in NI makes me look quite the red @rse!

Cheers fella! I'll be having my last smoke on Sunday evening and then its full steam ahead! When/where you in N. Ireland? I was out there for 3 months in 1984 and then again from 1985 to 1987; based at Ballykinler.

Way to go Miss Daisy!

I'm trying to find a local running track to do my two miler on and it's not looking good! If I don't find one it looks like I'll be running twice round this one mile circuit I mapped out around my house. The problem...... Well it's 1 mile up a pretty steep incline and then 1 mile down the other side! Ah well dig deep and…

The idea behind this is to have a bit of fun; set personal bests and kick them to the kerb month after month! Go for it sir!

Watching season 12, up to episode 10, of the latest US Biggest Loser and it's a good one! The Ozzie TBL, season 7, is due to air early in 2012

So shall we have a weekend of benchmarking?

At the moment I'm procrastinating! I'm working from home today and I planned to do a back workout roundabout now...... So I've come on here looking for motivation! Must be working 'coz at 15:30 I'm getting off my lazy @rse and heading up to the gym! :o)
-
In Europe my two favourite cities/towns are Berlin and Scheveningen (in Holland); lived in both places and miss them both so much!
-
My better half and myself love watching the Ozzie and US versions of the show; never got into the UK one for some reason! Great source of motivation.

Was you doing the WOD from the site or did he put together his own routines?
