So I met my personal trainer today and he’s set me on an intense programme with gym sessions Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, cycling 20 miles to and from work every day, plus long lazy cycles on a Sunday. That’s only two days of recovery a week. I’m exhausted just thinking about it!
For my eagle-eyed readers, you will notice that I am now actually a member of two gyms. Yes, two. One for weights and one for cardio. Have I lost my mind? Maybe. But I was panicking about the snow and my lack of aerobic exercise. So now I’m doubly covered. Whether I have time for it all is another matter.
In other news, the flights to Ethiopia have now been booked so there is literally no turning back. It’s all go, go, go from here!
Last week, I started my course of vaccines with jabs for Diphtheria, Polio, Tetanus, Hepatitis A and Hepatitis B. Tomorrow, Rabies and Yellow Fever and another Hepatitis (I think!?). Plus two more vaccine sessions to go after that. Sigh.
Now who said this wasn’t going to be intense?
