All forms of blogging, blog reading, personal e-mail, photo viewing, all that stuff is banned in the office - why I've not maybe been quite so avid a blogger or commenter as I migth have been....but just discovered someone forgot to block blogger.com....so hopefully should be able to keep up a little better!
Leg situaiton still bad. I haven't skipped in a week and have done my best mix up the exercises, but recovery hasn't gone terribly well. The left leg is fine, but my right feels like its been badly strained and the knee twisted (which i haven't actually done, just something to do with the fluid on the knee and shin splints). Got my third throat infection/cold of the year yesterday which has only added to the frustration. I felt freezing cold all day yesterday and have no doubt it was a contributing factor. Almost felt like its because my blood pressure has dropped and its having an effect on my core temperature - I definitely don't run as hot as I used to....
I guess in pure exercise terms, if I add it all up I'm probably behind three or four days worth from all the disruption that has accumulated recently and physically I feel like I've been going sideways for the last few days. Doing my best to hang in there as we got a long way to go and plenty of time to get back on top of things.
On the bright side, I've managed to stick to the diet fairly closely. Its fairly easy as I take a bag of stuff to the office to eat and I can turn my own inate laziness to my advantage by not getting off my fat arse to go and buy something naughty thats not on the PCP menu. Am sure there has to be something about this in martial arts philosophy as they are full of useful stuff like using your opponents weight against him and all that, but "use your laziness to conquer your temptations" must be in there somewhere as its bloody handy.
Don't worry about the past or future. All you can think about is right now. Keep pressing on, one day at a time. Perhaps substitute in walking or swimming till your knee is better.
