Week 2 day 1 horses & running

Okay, needed to be in early hungry on way into work so grabbed a bacon & egg sandwich for breakfast.

Sue me ! The diet marathon guy said it was a good mix. Honest.

Ate healthy the rest of the day ... Rice salad chicken, fruit.  Even chose cottage cheese and oat cakes as my late afternoon snack instead of half a really tempting looking flap jack.

Not run a lot today but still had some cross training of sorts planned

Jogged down to stables off the train with back pack of clothes & boots.
Horse riding for an hour and enjoyed the lovely sea front & weather. Really good for stretching those leg muscles.

Ran back to the gym with my bag most of way... So approx 5 miles in total . This was a bit harder than I thought, maybe a little tired.

Then Cath's total body workout class for 45 mins which is always varied , step , free weights different exercises  - great for overall fitness.

Definitely helped with my half marathon time , all those squats ...general core & strength so try not to miss this.

Had a bit of headache all afternoon but managed it all apart from getting out of sync on some of the step bits in the class ... I have 2 very big left feet.

Well deserved early night.
