A Really Long Overdue Update!

I have not updated this blog for far too long! And shall we just say my exercise routine has been somewhat sporadic. Oh it has existed... just not as much or as consistently as it should have done.

I have entered the 21st Century and made my first foray into the Smartphone world, and I think I am just about getting used to it- even if I did manage to get the predictive text function in French earlier.It takes pretty good photos, almost makes taking my camera out with me redundant!

                                         The Woods near Holme Pierrepont- Taken By My Phone!

Next year I intend to blast off with some proper training and have already entered a couple of events to spur me on... I have entered the Three Shires Challenge again and would love to include the Shutlingsloe loop this time and complete the full 29 miles.

I suddenly realised I hadn't got around to entering the Belvoir Challenge, which is a must do event for me and usually the first one of the year! It usually fills up really quickly- round about now in fact- so not wanting to take any chances and trust the dodgy Royal Mail this near to Christmas I drove over to Harby and hand delivered my entry!

I would love to do a longer challenge next year- say a 40 miler, oh yes there's the Bullock Smithy as well... watch this space! I promise that next year is going to be a lot more eventful than this year turned out to be!!

Hi Steph,

The only trouble with Smartphones is that they become addictive (Facebook every 20secs etc).

I'm not in for the Three Shires this year as we are on our hols (Ironically about 5 miles from the start, but that is the day we are due to leave).

However, I've entered Belvoir so I shall see you there.

As for Bullock Smithy, I shall giv it some thought ....
 
Hi Ross

It can be a bit addictive! Will have to be quite strict with myself or I will end up losing hours...

Belvoir is a fun event to do, loads of home made cakes!

I keep talking about the Bullock Smithy every year so I should just go ahead and get it done this year... may be able to tempt you too then!!
 
I don't know about the Bullock Smithy, but I've just entered the Ponton Plod.
 
The Ponton Plod is a great event, really friendly... I do it every year (although had to miss last year as it clashed with a family 'do')
