day 3: the wet stuff forces me to the gym

It wouldn't be Janathon without plenty mentions of the weather and today was a perfect candidate. Now I know in years past there has been snow and sub-zero temperatures but that I can actually handle when running outside. Not, however, horizontal freezing rain and strong winds. Walking to the gym was traumatic enough!

So, instead, I dutifully did 5km on the x-trainer and even did some weights. I haven't been to the gym in months and found they have bought all-new and shiny weight equipment so it was nice to give it a try before all the hoards of muscle-bound, narcissistic guys return after the holidays.

About 20 mins of weights and was definitely ready to return to being snug on the couch with my book (not before I logged and blogged of course!).

Hope noone-else out there has half-drowned while doing their Janathon-ing!

distance: 5km
time: 31mins31secs
muscle-bound, narcissistic guys in the gym: a few, but not hoards

  1. I went back to the gym for the first time in ages yesterday, they didn't have any nice shiny new equipment though.
