Who Doesn’t Love a Good Chart?
If you’ve explored the Pages (refer links below) you’ll see tables of the data I use for the daily weight check ins.

Saturday Morning, After the Storm
Brisbane had some storm activity early on Saturday morning, putting paid to any cycling plans I had. The back up plan was to meet my mate at the gym at 6 am. I elected to get up just before 5 am and head to Toowong and run in to the city along the Brisbane River.Continue reading “Saturday Morning, After the Storm”
A Quick Summary of the Journey So Far

Fatigue was starting to lift a little on Friday. After an inactive day at work, my wife and I got out to the pool late afternoon where I pushed out a pretty slow 1 km swim in 27:51. I was conscious of my left calf throughout the swim but was able to exit the poolContinue reading “A Friday Swim and Walk Combo”

On top of being concerned about whether I had genuinely injured my calves, particularlyContinue reading “Fatigue, and a Test Walk”
