giving up on the ab exercises ..
Although i know that ultimately working the abs will or should help me in the long term .. its the only part of working out that i so far have difficulties with and am getting sick of doing them so badly so i guess I'm gonna stop doing them .. I know by reading the pages n pages of stuff in here that ultimately the way to…

Why don't people get it?
just had a call from my mum .. She's had just read that I achieved 6.8 miles last night .. On Facebook .. Why have I started running? There's nothing on you ... Errrr yes mother...

Roller Skating as a form of exercise?
More time reading online while bored at work and i came across a few articles on the health benefits of roller skating as a form of cardio .. i used to roller-skate 2-3times a week as a kid and i loved it..who'd have thought that an hours skating uses as much as an hours jogging/walking but exercises far more muscles in…

Feeling good after running 2 miles
I haven't ever really been into keeping fit but recently i lost my dogs and so the walking part of my days kind of slipped me by .. i piled on a few pounds and i could feel myself getting a tad unfit to say the least .. So at 47 i decided i need to get off my *kitten* and do something .. About a month ago i changed my…
