I have definitely got an assertive plan for my work life to make me happier. My work takes us for granted. That stops. I have a professional work training plan for the Spring/Summer which leads into my future plans - if not approved I’ll put my 1 year notice in. I am due to move on in 6 months anyway to another role. If that role is what I’m after I’ll remove notice. I feel in control. Diary of CEO recently mentioned twice about people’s lives lacking meaning - at work I definitely have that - no why.

I only work part time but considering retiring fully. I’ve got a lot going on in my head at the moment so Im going to dump it all in a series of blogs whilst I am off this week.

Keep us up to date with how you are doing Welshpoppy - every day if that will help you with accountability.
There's an idea if I ever get the desire to start working again, Lizzie W :)

I've just run parkrun 32 seconds faster than the same course last week. Last week I'd knocked over 2 minutes off my previous course PB. The weight loss and resistance training must have helped, alongside running every day.

GimmeMedals What a great result for your 5k run well done reaping the rewards numerous times over.

I was thinking to post each day about how the previous day went for accountability/

Well done GimmeMedals👏👏. That’s a wonderful improvement.

I gained all my PB’s when I was running every day that seems a lifetime away now. Wish I still had a note of them but I came off Fetch for about 6yrs 😲. Luckily no one took my Fetch name in the meantime 😊

Nightowl: Under 10st by 31 Dec & 15 mpw min.

HOW: Improve diet - have you done the maths and considered in detail what you need to do?

Why 15 mpw? It’s nice to focus on the process but very easy to ignore without a why - “consistent running will improve PBs”? Will you do 5 x 3 or 3 x 5?

1 x yoga per week (not related to weight loss but need to get back into regular stretching).

Lammo:

Lose 8 kg by end of year

Exercise for 7 hours per week (i'd rather not include walking, but am sure i will to start with)

Lose 10kg by Christmas

Run 5k comfortably (might include jeffing, but it’s the comfortable bit I’m after)

I’m doing it by:

10k steps a day (I’ve just hit my longest streak of 18 days)
