I have my brilliant treadmill in the window so I can watch what's going on outside pity I cant see past the gate ;-(. I try and do 3.1 miles a day ready for Septembers race.
I have now joined an outside gym for the company as well. It's called Gymophobics and it's in Birkenhead, up loads of steps so you get a workout just getting in. The staff our brilliant, they keep telling me I a am causing trouble ME!!! would I do that.
The machines there are great they don't use weights like in a normal gym or at home, they use air pressure. So the only hard thing you have to do is press a button to get to the right weight. SUPER.
After I have spent my 30mins yes 30mins doing my workout I feel pumped ready to do more so in the afternoons when I go I have started to meet Garry after work and walk home with him.
When you have picked yourselves up off the floor I did say walk I even walk to his place and meet him from work first. No bus, or taxi; if this keeps up on the taxi firms are going to go bust.
When Gemma did her race for life Garry and I walked home from Birkenhead Park I moaned all the way home from Duke Street Bridge.last Tuesday Garry and I walked to our Pam's it took us 45 minuets and I didn't even feel the hill by the tunnel entrance and I didn't moan once.
I have been a member of Gymophobics for a couple if weeks now and on Thursday I got weighed again and I had lost a 1lb or .5kl in one week that makes me feel really good I must be doing something right at last.
Why not have a look for yourselves at the gym girls (no boys allowed) their web address is
