Needless to say, I didn't get a shag (be it woolly, feathered or otherwise). Nor did I get vodka. By the time I got home, I had the energy to check e-mail, make a new LJ icon (that still looks skinny after being stretched sideways in Photoshop, though at least it's pigeon-toed), and then go to bed.

i thought that exercise was supposed to make you sleep better? Since starting the gym thing, I've been waking up throughout the night & not getting back to sleep. I'm knackered & mentally dazed all the time. I'm not overdoing it (checking heart rates etc). Bah.

Mind you; after 4 visits, I've upped the amount I can run lurch from 1km in 10m to 1.8km in 15 mins. I can run lurch for 15 minutes without stopping! Go me! God I'm crap.

The gym's int he city centre, so it makes sense to go straight from work - and I only work 4 days a week. I'm working on the theory that if I *aim* for Tues - Weds - Thurs and slip one day, I'll have Friday to catch up (most weeks).

Also, I need the muscle as well atm; my legs are failing before my lungs & heart do, so building them up would be handy (if legs can be handy...). I'll probably slack off soon enough & not go on consecutive days, but the membership's only a 6 week one, nd the run is in 8 weeks or threabouts, so pushing myself (up to a point) can't hurt :)
