So…I made it to the finish line. This time, however, I was plagued by a sore back from a few kilometers in. This has made half of the month’s exercise, so much harder. I still managed a reasonable time, but I know that it could have been, even, better. Besides that, I decided I should return to swimming, but have not gone back to the gym, yet. I’m not feeling it, and think that my time is better used running, swimming and keeping up with my college work. I have weighed in at 15st 11lbs (100.1kgs.) I believe this loss is down to muscle easing through my new schedule changing the amount of exercise I can do and the food intake being a little lower than it should be.

I am pretty sure that I will dismiss the gym, now. I want to see if I can drop to a swim membership, as this will be more cost effective, and better for my new schedule. One of the biggest changes has been moving my early-week run to a Sunday. This having been my down-day, means that I am always catching up with my energy needs. Saying that, my appetite has subsided, considerably. I would have thought the Winter, heading our way, would mean the opposite, but nah!
I am holding off from doing any event, now. I want to get through the Winter and then readdress. Tiredness is the real problem. Time is the second. Until I can set these into a tidy pattern, I am going to be at odds with them.
