>5/5 here, though not as much as I wanted.

Seems like a lot to me!

Rumbas, that's pretty good considering that you are injured and trying to get back onto the swing of it.

Well I wanted to get back to the gym x5 and let vball be supplemental. It's just when I start playing vball in the sun at 90 degrees and heat index is topping or pushing 100, the next morning I am toast.

So, last week 3xvball 2xgym, so still hitting 5/5, and that's not counting the helping the guys move the cowork on Saturday.

littleman

Totally understandable in that kind of heat.  I did four gym sessions, two skateboard sessions with my 10 y.o..

Week 3 - 3/4

All gym sessions and cardio. Slowly moving back into training, but taking on a day by day basis as some days are just painful.

Nice job Ras.  It isn't easy to workout with an injury.

2/5 last week....I'm holding off on the gym until vball is over. Lots of work, gym and vball just isn't working out.

Last week of regular season play is next week though. After playoffs, back in the gym.

OK I am back.

Week 2 I did the tri.
so 3/4  ;)  It was a sprint.  My mate did the Super spint, and as the only over 50 taking part, came first in his category :)  It was special. We got the prize for best supporters.

week 3-- a couple of short runs so 2/4

week 4-- 5/4.  3 runs and a good sea swim. Oh and a couple of miles kayaking, lots of walks and playing on my new boat.
We have a spot on a small Island called Anglesey we got to, and its 3 miles running round the headland. I stop half way to watch the porpoises feeding.

... Make sure you live before you die.

Good to see back Rupert, keep it up.

>my new boat.
Do tell?

littleman

Welcome back Rupert!

Week 4 - 4/4

We got a family membership at the Y and I'm bringing my daughters in to do a little weight training. I also did a bit of skateboarding with the kids over the weekend, lots of fun but just moderate exercise.

Rupert

Ah the boat.
bought at Christmas.  Engine separate.

Put the two together. it went like a rocket, and then I discovered the floor was knackered.

so I have replaced the stringers and the floor. She is a 1972 fletcher arrow (17 foot), with 135 HP mariner 2 stroke.

I have a 19" prop on her at the mo, and get 50mph. What will she do with a 21" prop :) ???

Very cool Rupert! Looks like a fun tinkering project.

Forgot to mention 2/5 last week for me.

I haven't been reporting regularly but as of this morning's scales I'm one pound away from the goal that I had hoped to achieve by the end of March.

Slow progress is still progress, I guess! :)
