I've still been getting out for my scheduled runs, but nothing to write home about apart from the days getting shorter and I'm having to set off a bit later in the mornings. It was a cold morning this morning, I should have taken my gloves. It took me a good three miles to warm up.....
I'm not happy, I've been trying to find a supplier of my old running shoes. I found a later model of the shoe and ordered it and it came yesterday. It bears absolutely no resemblance to the previous model, and in a word....They're crap!
Another thirty quid down the proverbial....
That's the last time I buy running shoes off the net......
Ninety quid in Guernsey for a pair of New Balance that won't see the winter out.....I'm such a sucker!!!...
So Floydy......as the dark destroyer says on 'Eggheads' "Just another day at the office!"......
You've been doing some good workouts after your holiday by the way.....Hope you had a great time.....
I don't know about discontinued lines of running shoes mate, but surely there must be shops online somewhere? How about Googling the name of your shoe and looking at Images - quite often the pic will come up and maybe a supplier, who knows? I do this a lot with music t-shirts that I collect and I've found many I never knew existed.
Glad you're doing a bit though mate, hope the holiday went well. How many is this to date this year? Oh how to be retired with all that time!
Dark Destroyer...surely he's on The Chase matey?
Anyway, aside from the nitpicking, my training has suddenly ceased this week and for the foreseeable future methinks. After a good few sessions last week - plus restarting the cardio work - I've been tied up with other things this week (it's a pain only having a couple of hours a day to do stuff with. Soon be off nights hopefully). Tomorrow my granddaughter is staying overnight so that puts out Friday and Saturday morning's training as well. Ho Hum. And that afternoon it's my meet up for a few sherbets with the boyz, so no time bud. Not to worry, there's always next week
Take care mate

Re: Post your daily exercise routine
Cheers Floydy, yes you're right, the Dark Destroyer is off the chase..... One of the drawbacks of getting on a bit....
Just three holidays this year Floydy, we had that pesky kitchen job earlier on in the year, it kept us busy, and battling.....I've had a good look round the net for the shoes Floydy, and because I bought a few pairs when I could still buy them, a lot of time has passed and there have been quite a few new models since then, so it looks like a visit to a few specialised running shops I know, but I've got a few pairs to put me on...
Hope you can get back to the gym soon mate, meanwhile just enjoy the rest and the session with the boyz.

Re: Post your daily exercise routine
I'm quite pleased today.
I've been putting the hours in at the "little gym" and noticed better muscles in my arms, chest and core, with even the dodgy legs getting some back. Even with the extra muscle gained I have lost 5lbs in weight over the last few months, making a grand total of 120lbs since 4 years ago. I'm just happy I haven't slipped back into my old habits, which I thought might have been a possibility, to be honest.
