Recovery

Just getting back into it this last week, due to getting the flu early in the month and it taking a good two weeks to feel good enough to get back into exercise, hurt my ankle too, so that didnt help progress either. Thankfully my weight remained pretty constant through it all.

Feeling much better now but don’t want to overdo it straight away, so currently the plan for the next two weeks is to do alternate days on the treadmill, walking and running for 30-45mins. Looking at around 6kph walking and 9kph jogging for the moment, just on a .5 incline. All treadmill workouts for the moment. Trying to take it a bit easy really.

Kinda disapointing that id only just added weights back into the routine, but will put them back in once ive done this two week cycle. I think i will have two rest days a week instead of one moving forward, but we shall see.

It’s spring here, nearly summer, so I’ve set up all the outside furniture, sails etc. It’s Very windy today but all seems to be holding up well. It will be a nice quiet area to spend hot days over the summer with the family.

Chillis are growing well, Ive got full gardens now, so untill the brocolli is ready i cant do too much beyond weeding and squishing white butterfly caterpillars. Ive put in five jalapenos as last year we didnt end up with any, hopefully the are ready for the chilli and beer day. Made a full flower garden, cant wait to see what it looks like in a few months.

Designed cut and partially assembled a new sim rig for one of the guys in the sim racing group yesterday, cant wait to see the final result as was looking really good the work we had done, managed to bend a saw blade, so that part wasnt much fun and an unexpected cost.

We have a hotlap challenge currently going in the racing group. Bathurst in V8 supercars, which is looking pretty popular, with 15 members having times so far, ranging from 2.07-2.14 ish, so fairly close.
