Another Week and the results were as expected

The dance of addiction... two steps forward and one step back!   Well... this week life got in the way of my good intentions and my resolve was not strong enough.   Not an excuse, it was just what happened.

Review:
Had a busy couple of nights - dinner out and catching up with friends and also on Friday I went to the Food Show in Auckland.  So many samples to try :(   so I have paid the price and gained 400gms this week.

And also No exercise :(   
Still that was then and this is now and it is another week.

The Plan:
So what is next on the exercise front! .... In July I did the Gold Coast Half marathon hehehe what a great experience.   We only walked/jogged so our time was not the greatest, but we got the medal and the t-shirt (and a shocking photo)  however had an absolute ball.   I am so glad I did it!!

Next up is November 27th - I have agreed (actually to be honest I have been convinced it will be great and I will be able to do it... yeah right ) to be part of a relay team for the Taupo Cycle Race.  The full course is 160km however we are doing it as a relay team of 4.   So in theory only 40km (how hard can that be)!  I have always loved to cycle, however I find the roads around here rather dangerous especially by myself.   However one of my goals is to compete in a cycle event and as time is quickly ticking by, I have decided to do it!!!.   I think I have rocks in my head sometimes!

So out with bike - I have not been on it for over 6 months, so it will need a little service.   On with the padded pants (oh what a sight!)  however believe me they are invaluable item of clothing for certain lady parts :).   Off to set up a training plan.  Surely it can't be "too bad"..... do you sense my apprehension.

On other news - no news of that baby yet.   My birthday is this Wednesday, so I am looking forward to sharing the day with a lovely wee girl (fingers crossed).
