Weight Graph: From 15yo until now...

This is a record of my weight since the age of 15, when I stopped growing up ... and started growing out. Bear in mind that for my height the middle of the healthy BMI range (20-25) would have me at 69kgs. At 77kgs I pop through the top of that range....

Sky(High)'s the limit....


Hijacked again !

Ended up at SkyHigh for the first time, and trimmed another 40secs of my 1in20 time. Very cool and clear at the top today, great views to CBD and YouYangs, nice hot choccy.

Followed the demon descender (thanks for the ride UJ1) down to Montrose and home via Mt Dandy and Maroondah Hwy.

ReddyNeddy Goes for a Run....

I'm healthy, but not fit. I walk a lot, and easily make the 10000 steps most days. I have a reasonably good diet I think, maybe just the quantities are a bit high. And at 1.75m and 85kgs I'm 10kg over par.

So I went for a run last Saturday week. I trotted gingerly around our local 'short walk' which covers about 3.2km (2 miles). At my peak ( a l-o-n-g time ago!) I could dash around this track in less than 15 min. Last Saturday week it took me 25 min....and I jogged about 2.5 kms of the distance - pretty slowly.

So today... 9 days later... I went out again. This time I strapped the dicky knee, warmed up for about 4 mins on the road bike aero-trainer. This time I jogged 90% of the way and took 21 mins.

So that's good, right?

The frst time I 'jammed up' for a few days after (ok for about 5 days) and then just didn't get around to another effort until today but hopefully I can get out again next Saturday or Sunday evening i.e. in about 5 or 6 days.

That's the plan.
