Oh I'm full of empty promises.....so much for gym visits in the week...fickle...that's what I am!!
However...trundled off to gym with TC this morning....sooo wasn't in the mood, should've been out on the bike as it was so gorgeous..
Anyway, a warm up on the cross trainer and a couple of episodes of Friends on the tread mill and 'Bob's your uncle'!
The requisite pink cheeks and damp curls on the neck were evident so all was well with the world..
Having just checked the weather forecast for tomorrow it's looking like an early cycle to Corbiere and then off to the gym to watch American Idol and/or the big game....I'll be cheering for the Hotspurs .....oh my giddy aunt, my life is just beyond exciting!!!

Day 1 - Saturday 10th February 2007
Today is the first day of my countdown to my Cycle Vietnam challenge in November. Today I have: a. set up a fund raising page at http://www.justgiving.com/siobhanmartina b. set up this blog to track my training progress and no doubt many frustrations; and c. started my training. It has to be said that I'm feeling a tad righteous! In saying that I feel that I have to mention that my training took place on my exercise bike at home....come on!!...it's far too cold and wet for the real thing! I'm looking at about April for that!!! I've set myself a goal of doing at least 1 hour on the bike every day and have had the most wonderful idea of how to get over the tedium of getting nowhere slowly! Yes... I'm going to watch the whole series of 'The Sopranos'....series 1-6 in fact! When I've finished these I'll then move onto '24' ...again...every series available on DVD. But panic not my sweets, amongst all this toil, I will also be going to the gym....I'll be the one with the very pink cheeks at Fitness First! How come some girls look great exercising and some look like...well....me?! My stats on the bike for today were: RPM - 72 / SPEED - 28 / TIME - 60 mins / DISTANCE - 26.48 / CALORIES - 599 ( = 1 Mint Aero & 1 Ripple!) But as the old saying goes, 'The best laid plans of mice and Siobhans' or as my lovely Mother would say, 'The road to hell is paved with good intentions!'. Till next time...
