It’s been a few days since I posted last on here and, exercise wise, it’s not been a good few days; self-indulgence wise they’ve been great.

I did a 10km run on Thursday and was planning on swimming on Friday when I got a call from a friend asking did I want to go for a sun set beer? My brother’s here at the moment so I thought it would be a nice thing to do so off we went.

I then had to meet Samia, Jay le Shark, Doris and the Sniffer for dinner as a leaving party for the former and that involved lots of good food and a number of drinks.

Saturday morning brought work and a large quantity of bread – I had a number of sandwiches – before I went for a swim.

Finally broke the 32 minute barrier postin 31.03 which I was very happy with but then I came down with the worst case of cramp I can ever imagine – calves, hamstrings, quads – even my shins – agony!

I subsequently ruined that good work by having pizza for dinner and then beers on my night out – luckily I cut some serious shapes on the dancefloor which will have burned up a number of calories….

Sunday was a case of up and preparing for dinner that night – I made some roast pork pittas for friends to enjoy with the football before going dahn sarf to Friendship Beach for a BBQ for a friend’s birthday.

Had a couple more beers and ate too much whilst there, before watching FC Phuket win in town.

Now feeling very guilty so will be swimming tonight, running tomorrow and then biking and running on wednesday and then perhaps doing an extended ride on Thursday…..

Time to get back in the saddle as it were and stop being such a greedy get!

So after last week’s exertions, I took Friday off exercising because I was pretty tired. Had a nice meal and a couple of beers – it was Friday after all!

After working on Saturday I took the bike out and despite feeling that I didn’t have much energy in my legs, I was making good progress over the hills when my tyre blew out and I was stuck as I didn’t have a way of repairing it – lesson learned!!

Sunday is always a day of rest and went for a Thai massage to soothe my aching muscles and on Monday it was back in the pool. 32min 1,800m again which is becoming more than a touch annoying!

Yesterday I set out for a run while the bike is getting serviced and did 8km in 45mins – more than respectable methinks….

That’s me for another week – stay tuned for updates
