Almost 4 weeks since my last post - tsk, must try harder!

What's been happening in the last 4 weeks? Well, I took part in a sponsored cycle ride for my local hospice - there was a choice of 12 or 24 mile routes along the Thames Path so I opted for 12 but along a different stretch of the path than I am used to :-)
It was a gloriously sunny Sunday, perfect weather for the ride and I thoroughly enjoyed it. As I approached the finish I was thinking "next year I will definitely do the 24 mile route" - and then realised that if it is organised for the same weekend next year then I won't be able to take part as I will be in Jordan - and cycling an awful lot more than 24 miles!!

Training hasn't really progressed much over the last few weeks, partly due to lack of time (college/exams etc) and partly due to me not being well for a few days - but I am sticking to my twice weekly gym visits and weekend cycling whenever I can.
I had my first ever Personal Training session and it was so much fun I hardly realised I was working out - but boy! did I ache the next (few) days. I know that I will need to step up my training soon & I am actually looking forward to it! (I never thought I would hear myself say I was looking forward to more exercise!!)

My fundraising total has reached £970 to date - and I now have not one but TWO curry nights planned for November so I am hoping to see a good boost to my total next month.

This weekend I am going away for a Scrapbooking weekend, I am hoping to make a good start on recording the beginnings of my Journey to Jordan :-) BUT it is all-inclusive with lots of lovely food so next week will be back on the diet for me!!
