Saving Time

Weight - 63.9
Waist - 78cm
Food - not tracked in CK - but around my budget according to my calcs
Exercise tonight - Combat and a few kms of running either side of the class.

I'm not sure why my weight has spiked - but since I think I've kept to my targets I'm going to ignore it. I did discover however that my non nutritionally sound choices of food led to a significant drop in energy. I had enough to train - but couldn't get out of bed in the morning to prepare my healthy food which has led to a catch 22 situation. So I forced myself to break this, and hopefully I'm back on track.

I'm a bit grumpy about the "love" situation (aka the new car I want). My husband looked at the car I'm interested in tonight, and then spoke to a friend of a friend who has one, who said there is a fault in this particular model and not to buy one. Not happy. What does one person know anyway?

And whilst I'm grumpy - who is designing these Combat classes to be easier and easier every new release? This latest one only really pushes me in Moo Thai (I have no idea how to spell this) - and even then not to my limits. AND I take all the highest options and then add my own in to keep my HR up. Mind you - my polar told me tonight that I hit 100% of my max HR and I wasn't even puffing - what the ### - oh, and then it promptly died on me (I guess that explains the odd readings!) Oh and did I mention my current car also died today - thankfully right in front of a crash repairer, and within walking distance of work. Mention #2 - I need a new car (hmm - and it must be an MG/convertible)

Well grumpiness aside (im not really a very moody person) thought I might post some interesting fitness info - from Matt Fitzgerald's Complete Triathlon Book on Time Savers - The benefits of good gear in an Olympic Distance Triathlon(1.5km s, 40 km b, 10 km r):
