  • You win some, you lose some.

    Well, I got up in the morning at 10am then headed out for an 8km walk, came back home, had a shower, got changed then headed out to work – things were going great until I tripped over an uneven surface when walking to the train station and landed on my hands resulting in some…

  • Off to work.

    Woke up before my alarm went off this morning, went for a 5.8km walk, showered and I’m relaxing before leaving home to go to work. I haven’t got the test results back but I’m hoping that if it is below 40 then I’ll be happy although I have a bit of work to do because…

  • One day down, four more to go.

    I woke up this morning and my foot was feeling a bit better – I think what I need is some heel balm because the cracks in my heel can be painful at times. This morning I decided to work from home so I went for an 11.6km walk, came home, freshened up and then…

  • A productive day.

    Woke up at 11am, got dressed and then headed down to the blood testing lab for a blood and urine test – just the usual testing to make sure everything is on track and that there aren’t any sort of issues regarding my blood sugar. I think I’ll be all good but my main focus…

  • One more day to go.

    Today I got up at 11am and decided that rather than go for my usual 5.8km walk that I would go for an 8km walk before work.- it felt good pushig myself to go a little further and I love the feeling of the warm sun before midday along with the cool breeze. I was…

  • Looking forward to Saturday.

    I was hoping to get some exercise in on Friday but it has been raining all day but if everything goes according to plan I’ll get getting up at 11am on Saturday and go for a walk – I might even go for an 8km walk since I’ll have some extra time up my sleeve.…

  • Start of a new day.

    Woke up this morning before the alarm and I had a look outside thinking “ooh, the weather is looking good for a walk today” and now it has suddenly started to rain. I have to remember next time not to excited about the possibility of good weather because all to often it starts to rain.…

  • Feeling a lot better.

    I’m feeling a lot better now after going for two walks totalling 23.2km – 11.6km in the afternoon then 11.6km in the evening. I think getting out in the fresh air and breathing in fresh air has helped my recovery and tomorrow then the next day I’ll be doing the same thing however when I…

  • A good day today.

    I had a fairly uneventful day today – some busy periods but mostly rather uneventful over all. When I woke up this morning I checked for updates and Apple had released an update for iOS, iPadOS and macOS in the for of 26.3.1 – the updates were pretty big (I have Apple Intelligence enabled on…

  • Today was a good day.

    I worked from home today because I was feeling under the weather to go into the office so I’ll be working for the rest of the week at home but I’ll be all recovered to go into the office next week. After finishing work tonight I went for a walk – had to wear a…
