Random thoughts

• Leaving for school at 6am on a Saturday sucks. But if I love my Saturdays enough to take a pay cut, there's always that option. Until then, it's put up or shut up.

• I ran after work on Wednesday, my only early weekday. I ran 30 minutes at 7:30-7:45 pace - largely 7:30, but finishing on a seemingly never-ending hill probably pushed it to 7:45.

• I hate finishing work at 7.

• I hate having to prepare work until 9-ish most weekday evenings.

• Evolution blessed me with a big mouth, largely to wolf down large amounts of food in small amounts of time. Ten minutes for lunch on some days is not ideal, but neither is it impossible.

• 200 pressups a day is not always possible on consecutive days, but I'll stop worrying about reps from now on and instead work on quality and form.

• I can eat a banana without using my hands.

• It appears I'll only have opportunities to run on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

• Probably even less chances for blogging.

• Are Met-RX meal replacements any good?

• Sunday should be a computer-free day.

• I've considered shutting down this blog. Mainly because I don't run enough, don't have anything much to say, and when I do, it's usually some moan about life or work.

• Long train journeys can be spent munching breakfast and prepping work, but attempting to bring along toiletries to get ready in the train toilets is a bit of a stretch.

• Especially when the toilets are out of order.

• I don't have to hoik heavy weights to work my biceps.

• Doing one set of everything a day will probably yield me better results than two sets every other day.

• Drinking 6 litres of water a day is fine. Not so fine at the other end.

• If you wish to view excerpts from the programme I mentioned in the previous post, here's a link you can try.

• I need easy-to-make soup recipes.

• More hours in a day would be good.
