12. 20 mins walk, two and a half hours at the Works (but the first hour and a half was fairly ineffectual, trying new things and finding they hurt my elbow, before I got it together and spent the last hour more productively, repeating easier things I'd done before and not hurting my elbow), circa half hour strength training.

Pleased with myself for (mostly) warding off a downwards mood spiral during the session, even though my sleep is fucked and I've been having one of those days where sensory sensitivity is especially bad and the noise of the hand-dryers in the loo is like taking a cheese-grater to my brain.

Good effort.
I've been feeling pretty pleased with how steady I have been feeling for the last couple of years.
I know we are all different, but I do hope you get a good stint if steadiness at some point. It's really nice.

I hear that! Unfortunately some very bad things happened to my brain over a decade ago (hot tip: "freak neurochemical reaction" is a phrase you never want to hear), and after that I got a lot better, but never got back to my previous "normal" again.

So for me, relative "steadiness" involves a fair amount of fluctuation and bad brain patches, and managing those. Tedious but that's just how it goes, and I'm doing way better than last year (where it got to the point where I actually get worried).

[lukeyboy]

Parkrun with brother-in-law this morn, good start to the year. Cleared out the remaining Christmas leftovers from the fridge, though still going on the homemade mince pies, too good not to.

Aim to start a week's trial at the independent crossfit-style gym my wife goes to, in the next day or so, with the aim of working on the gaps left by climbing and running and just feeling stronger/healthier overall.

Day 2
30 min rainy walk to nursery and back in the morning.
5k run loop to/from the gym (first time in about 20 years) this eve, had a good 1h strength training session. Keen to get stuck in over the next few weeks and see some progress. Mostly used light weights and focused on technique.
Was quite restrained with food, though still working through sister-in-law's homemade Christmas cake.

Day 3 - very wet 1h walk school/nursery run. 1h30 indoor boulder session.

4. 1h walk school/nursery run. 5k run loop to/from gym, 1h strength session. Really enjoyed.

5. Just the 1h school/nursery walk today. And currently doing a bit of stretching.

6. 15 min jog to gym then a 1h beasting. Loved it. Went for a coffee after and managed to avoid the pastries.

7. 1.5h trail run (10ish miles) along the coast from Clevedon to Portishead whilst daughter at ballet. One of those where it fitted in perfectly and felt like a win.

8. The normal 1h walk school/nursery run this morning, then 5k run to/from 1h strength training at gym.

9. Just the 1h walk this morning, though we were late so I was storming along with a double buggy incl. 40kg of children, which got the HR up.

10. Same again today, just the school run. Wife's birthday so no chance of an evening outing!

11. 2 x school run (2h brisk walking) then 1.5h bouldering at Bloc this eve. Had a whale of a time.

12. Just the school run 1h walk

13. Very gentle jog to parkrun then back, about 6 miles. Keeping my powder dry for a race tomorrow. Went out for dinner for wife's birthday, it was really nice and also managed to maintain dry January
