resting & resistance training

well on the program for today is cross training. i will be doing that around 5pm when i commence my new resistance program which is using light champagne (possibly beer) weights with high reps. i'm really looking forward to it.

hehe - it is great to come back to a place that has staff drinks every friday. i plan to use it as part of my salary packaging. not to imply that i drink a lot. but i do like to be sociable. :)

the new job is a bit of a struggle at the moment. not because i have too much work - but rather because i have none and i am getting frustrated and bored and feeling a bit lost! no one is really talking to me much - i suspect that this will change next week when they have time to actually stop and give me some work. fingers crossed. everyone says that i will wish i was this quiet very soon - which is true - but is hard in your first few days when no one is very chatty!!! i haven't even turned on my time recording. what would i record it as... "ADMIN: bludging".

anyway - looking forward to a nice running (and other) weekend. 30 mins tomorrow and 60 on Sunday with Lulu, Jen, the Owl and Owl's friend. Can't wait. Lulu and Jen are doing 70 mins i think and i did 65 last Sunday so i will see how i go whether i go with them. Should be great!!!

thanks everyone for your comments - i do feel good about how far i have come - i would have been sh*t scared to even rock up to a training session at sweat before and now i feel confident that mostly i can finish the sessions. its great. now if only i could get some work, find that sugar daddy i keep speaking of, win the lotto (which would negate need for work) and end third world debt I would be a satisfied woman :) hehe

Aww, good job Ellie...don't you find it so much easier to run now when you have it all planned out?

You forgot interest rates and the price of petrol!

Keep sweating ;-)
