Zero Times

MISSING: Karen's Mojo... if found, tell her I need to have a quick word with her!

I mean, seriously! Im actually so disappointed in myself tonight! Great intentions of cycling 8 miles at least, cycle through the tiredness and what happens??

I don't even last 10 minutes... Less than 2 miles :(
A hormonal teenage boy would have lasted longer than me... yes, I know it sounds so so wrong, but I'm right though! And to make matters worse, I found solace in a bowl of HB Brunch ice-cream!

What I started to do last week was physically write down everything I eat and log every mile I've done, which is great and motivating and inspires me to make better choices...But, over the last 5 days I see red writing of naughty food choices on each day-page :( I don't want that for the duration of my training.

I know that people can go this way, but I don't want to slack off this early because I know myself, I won't stop and I will only pull out of that cycle, and I couldn't take the guilt on my conscience knowing that I had no one to blame but myself.

Onwards and upwards from tomorrow, I can pull through this! Seeing people suffer from cancer, plus Kelly Osbourne's recent insta-uploads of sweaty gym clothes are making me want to get back to the form I was in this time last week! Cut back on the carbs and butter, the yummy sweets (including the still-leftover Christmas tins - sad face), up my water and green tea intake, and really go for it  on the bike over the next 3-4 days, and I'll start feeling the euphoria taking over and make me want to better myself!

There are people continuously researching cancer day in and day out, there are people fighting the battles of their lives against cancer on a daily basis... the least I can do is sit on an exercise bike and try and better myself every day. Cycling the length of Ireland will be a walk in the park in comparison to those fighting at the minute..

It's the least that I can do.....
