Resurrection

Its been a long time since I posted in this blog so its time to resurrect it. 

I am still plodding along with the exercise thing but its not been consistent enough for my liking, too many things going on that I have let get in the way. My aim is to make exercise or activity some part of my everyday life - a priority for want of a better word. This started today with a 25 minute bike ride. 

The last time I rode a bike was a couple of months ago when some members of my immediate and extended family rode part of the Hauraki Rail Trail to celebrate my mums 70th

Rail trail


Rail Trail



Before that it was a bike ride over the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco in April 2013

I do own a road bike, but due to a shoulder injury I sustained a couple of years ago I haven't done much cycling however that is going to change as hubby and I might be doing a rail trail in the South Island next year, so someone i.e me needs to be able to ride a little further than around the block.

Speaking of San Francisco while there I met Amber from Go Kaleo more about her and eating another day.

If you actually read my blog I appreciate it. It would be nice if you left a comment too.
Have a great day

Before I forget

Endomondo Walking Workout: was out walking 3.23 km in 31m:15s using Endomondo.

I did do some exercise earlier today and just about forgot to post it.
This was a walk/jog. With my shoulder injury I have to take it slowly in building up the running as the bouncing motion does aggravate the shoulder. If it is aggravate I don't usually find out until later.

Writing

Well this writing thing is not as easy as it seems. Compared to other blogs mine seems clunky and ill-formed but hopefully with practice that will change? One can only hope. Not that it probably matters since I am probably writing for an audience of one...myself!
I have been a bit tardy on the exercise front, one day as a day off the other well...procrastination springs to mind.
Was planning on a walk/jog this afternoon but the weather has conspired against me with rain for the last couple of hours, so I have just completed a small KB workout.
Still with the 8kg, slowly building mindful of my shoulder
singles 1/15, 1/10
2 handed 2/20
o/head press 2/5
