I hate how you can swim for hours and then you look at how far you’ve gone, and it’s the equivalent of a 10 minute walk.

Smashed it!! I would to thank Billy Joel, Gabrielle, Robbie Williams, and Anastacia for their motivational tones.

Be honest with me. Is this too much thigh?

WFH with zero work to actually do. Taking bets on how many times I’ll have a wank.

I’ve got a meeting today where I’m going to have to sample several horseradish samples. 🤮

Date day at the lush spa 💕

Cinnamon honey caramelised bananas on fluffy pancakes. Best I think I’ve ever made.

How many pancakes will I eat tomorrow?

February has been a fallow month from diet and exercise. It’s been so nice being a total fat bastard again, but without the guilt.

How do you handle a senior manager giving you the most patronising feedback when it’s their incompetence to understand and email that lead to a miss understanding? I nodded with gritted teeth, but I think a part of me died.

Finishing an indulgent week of endless food, with a yet to be released flavour of Tony’s. I bloody love my job.

Can’t believe I came to Germany and ended up eating at French restaurants. Where is my German sausage!

Day one hall one. So much sweets!!

Hotel lighting blah blah blah

Off to a conference to eat sweets for 3 days. I need all your sympathy for my hard work, please.

Today my senior manager provided me feedback for my annual review Positives - I make a good personality hire. Negatives - I have to be asked to do things and don’t simply read people’s minds.

An eclectic selection of reads on the go.

I spent my day in a sweet factory test kitchen developing new concepts. I bloody love my job.

10k smashed now ready for my Burns supper!

At what point does VO2 max reach critical limit and you no longer need to breathe?

This week has felt like a soggy bog. With blue Monday and an assignment that felt uninspired. But. We got through blue Monday, got the assignment submitted, read nearly 100 pages of my book, but most importantly even in the rain went for that run.

I want these but they are definitely not worth the £73. Any recommendations for anything similar or favoured swims? Best suggestion or biggest donation towards a paid gets to see me in them first.

It took just 22 minutes to devour an entire Tony’s chocolonly. It took only 5 further minutes for the regret to set in.

2kg down since Jan 1st and my fastest 10k!

Can they not host park run at a more respectable time for a weekend. I’d love to join in, but it’s too early.

Apple fitness would have me think running is going to kill me.

Best thing about loving art as someone who’s not a millionaire, is that printing a copy can mean just as much as having the real thing.

Well done me.

People who microwave fish in the office

My post run sweaty pics are not a look.

Had to give a presentation on how to manufacture tinned fish. Sexy. Least I had my influence pose ready.

At the start of the year got my new running gear on and omg I’m so proud of myself for keeping up with it despite the cold.

Apple Watch making me look bad.

How handsome was Dougie boy in his new years tux?!

Started the year with a run this morning and polishing off the last of the chocolate this afternoon. Balance.

Ross throwing half the bottle of bubbles over the kitchen right before the bells

All these festivities. I’m stuffed, and I’ve had a lot to eat 😜.

Today’s my birthday. Who wants to buy me the speedos I’ve been wanting?

Why strictly got me crying like this.

Having spent the day in a sweet factory eating my weight in chocolate mini eggs has restored the balance.

I love my job. But the current Christmas chaos makes me wonder if retraining to eat food for a living was actually worth it.

Only went and bastard stood on it again leaving work.

Things you’d put in room 101. That random bit of the path that shoots dirty water up your leg when step on it.

Home alone for the night, I ate an entire sourdough loaf. Not the wild night I expected to have.

Morning 🌚

Dads ready for his first Xmas party 🎉

Turns out the most effective way to get a faster run is have a stressful day at work.

Love my new shoes ♥️

Got my first pair of proper running trainers. I bet you can’t catch me.
