murtle Posted March 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 That is the confusing part as it is saying the distance was 3.28 miles, but that doesn't match the pace / time you were out that it gives. xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooster Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 Fitball class done with Mr Grumpy. It was ok actually, actually managed to briefly kneel on the ball with my hands in the air! And I managed to do a couple of Pikes on the ball, which I have always failed miserably at Think I might try and get to the class on a regular basis, as it keeps my workout varied, doing core workout on a Monday with Deejay, fitball with Matt on a Tuesday then tone and shape with Mr G on a Wednesday. Then that leaves Thursday, Friday and Sunday for my cardio days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happylittlegreensquirrel Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 Dogstar have been invited to this event but Mark and I are in Sri Lanka Saturday, 6th July 2013 marks the sixth anniversary of the Challenge. Since 2008 small charities and their supporters have travelled from across the UK to run, walk or even stilt walk the 10km or 4km route through the beautiful Peak District. It is free for any eligible organisation to attend. This means that they can keep all funds raised by those taking part for them. In 2012, 220 runners and walkers descended on the Peak District for the FSI Challenge and followed the shorter or longer route around the Monsal Trail before crossing the finishing line on the lawn of Thornbridge Hall. Despite the weather there was a great atmosphere throughout the day topped by a BBQ in the camping headquarters! This year, as well as offering 250 free places for you to fill with fundraisers for your small charity, we are also offering the opportunity for you to: • Host a stall;• Camp on the grounds;• Join in with the Saturday evening BBQ;• Stay until Sunday where you can attend the Thornbridge Hall Garden Party for free. Whether you come for the day or stay the weekend, it’s a great summer event and an enjoyable way to fundraise for your organisation. we can get free places for runners in a 4 and 10 k and also run a stall , maybe a few fugees could do it together ? http://www.smallcharitychallenge.org/#all long shot but does anyone here want to do the run or the stall ? maybe a few fugees could do it together ? If anyone is interested let me know Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gooster Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Well done Murtle Mr G was back today Lots more leg hammering than last week, which I did enjoy - honestly When we were doing abs work, we had to do leg raises - he was being mean and pushing one of the other girls legs down for 10 raises, then when he had done, she told him to go and pick on someone else. He then said 'Where's Jayne' and came and did the same with me - I had nearly finished my leg raises as well, so had to do 10 extra ones At least he didn't put a weight on my back whilst we were planking this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gooster Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 unfortunately, I never have a day's rest, as having Blue means that even on my non gym days, I am still lugging water buckets and sweeping up! Tbh, I don't tend to do a right lot on a Friday night, as by the time I have ridden Blue and got there, it is quite late. I could drop that day out of my workout schedule, but I do quite enjoy my Friday night bimble around the gym and chat with Mr Grumpy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mags Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 I think I have too many rest days I should use my pedometer on Fridays when I go into town for shopping/banking, etc. If I think of it this Friday, I'll put my ipod in my pocket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
