It has been a long time now since I've been in formal education. I learn a lot, but it's more about following an interest rather than anything with a structure. I teach myself the parts that I'm interested in, that will get me what I need in that moment, fitting in the time to when … Continue reading Re-learning Learning
The gym is opening back up for outdoor sessions this week in accordance with the country's Covid guidance. Archery is also able to start back up again. With the improvement of weather I've taken up a marathon training plan, so am running to a schedule again. I'm also trying to get out on my bike … Continue reading All Go!
I thought that I would do a quick progress update. Partially to keep myself on track and partially because I'm feeling pretty good and noticed a few things already from where I've changed things up this year, and I want to talk about that. Sharing is caring, and that's what you're here for 🙂 If … Continue reading 2 Month Progress Check
Hello all and welcome to my first post of 2021. It's a new year, and I know that many of us are hoping for a far better year than 2020 turned out to be. It's certainly going to be different - 2020 started with everything being fine and plenty of people having hopes and expectations … Continue reading Hopes for 2021

For 12 weeks through the lockdown in the UK, I've been following a running programme. It was a 20 week marathon training guide from Ross Edgley's 'The World's Fittest Book'. I had bought the book at the very beginning of lockdown, and it was a really interesting read that I very much enjoyed. As well … Continue reading Run, Run, Run
Here in the UK, the gyms have been allowed to reopen under strict distancing rules. My gym has opened back up, which is great. Even though my gym did workouts through zoom and some outdoor workouts since those were permitted, I've not been able to attend many. This was because most of them clashed at … Continue reading Returning to the Gym
Sharing your troubles is scary. But the more comfortable that I've gotten with being open with others about my struggles with anxiety, the more I've heard of other people's own struggles. It's not always a 'me too', but it seems that most people have had some experience with either their own anxiety, or that of … Continue reading Never Alone
I am very bad at making decisions. I will over analyze all of the possibilities, and all of the things that could go wrong, and overthink about how I maybe don't know enough or am missing something to make the 'right' decision. I get stuck on decisions way too often! This can be small decisions, … Continue reading The Only Wrong Choice is No Choice
In my last post, I talked a little about how the lockdown has been effecting my self-development and how I plan to start getting back on-track. Part of that journey is to re-build some of the habits that I've allowed to slip. (And possibly to build some new ones that match my new situation better) … Continue reading Re-building Habits
