Training and blogging...

I haven't felt much like blogging here lately. I don't want to write about the kids because this blog's not anonymous and because the kids are fostered there are other privacy issues I suppose.
I'm still training extra hard to build muscle, that's what I was told to do after the physiological tests. I average 3 to 4 days per week in the gym and that's including a little bit of swimming (plus all the running!). If I didn't have to breath the swimming would be going eh....well swimmingly. I'm trying to keep injury at bay by getting regular massage which is painful but I keep telling myself it has to be good for me!

Met some more of the 4nine£ gang last Saturday in Jo's house. Great night, I haven't laughed so much in ages. Great to put some faces to the names especially Jo's little girl!

This weekend I'm doing the Women's Cycling Event in Blessington. Never having even sat on a road bike I hope I don't get left behind....

Good luck in the Womens Cycling Event:) With all your muscle building I'm sure you'll fly it:)

Neal said...

Yeah, likewise, have fun in the cycling. A new sporting event is always fun, even just for the experience :)

Have you tried alternate breathing, 3 strokes breath right, 3 strokes breath left? Also helps even out the strain on both sides. Also whether breath or not rotate your body side to side with each stroke - less resistance, also push your chest into the water, your body should be bow shaped, the resistance of the water will create buoyancy.

Hi Ellen, thanks for that, I'll try and enjoy it.
Neal, it will be all "new" as I haven't even sat on a road bike yet!
Thanks for the advice John, I'll try the rotating. The trouble I'm having is the actual intake of breath. I can still only breath in a panic and half the pool goes into my mouth and then I lose it altogether and have to stand up. People just keep saying I'll get it eventually but I feel if I could get it now I could get on with the action of actually swimming. AW trial and error I suppose...

Thanks you lot for the encouragement!

cycling is fun and a good workout and quite enjoyable, as long as you dont have to pedal uphill :D

Sorry about your appetite or lack there of after reading about lasik. Inquiring minds want to know this stuff!

Check my blog for links to a couple of local women in my area that just completed some wicked runs!

The chap who runs it is called Neil Stewert and his lovely wife Emma also teaches Pilates and core strengthening over the weekend. The food is terrific and the location and the runs were breath-taking, if demanding ( I timed the trip wrong as I'm not anywhere near as fit as I would be coming up to the Dublin marathon where as everyone else there was in training for the london, still I learned a lot)
Take a gander and see if it suits. I can honestly recommend it and there are really good value flights into aberdeen, also Neil can pick you up and drop you off and he doesn't charge a huge amount for this service.
