After a few minutes I managed to pierce it and let some blood out! Instant relief! Looked forward to a nice relaxing bank holiday off work...then got a call at 11am from the club captain - “Can you play today please - we’ve had a drop out?!” Scored a few runs, didn’t aggravate the injury and we won handsomely! Heroic! You absolute monster. It's a rank thing to do but the relief is sooooooooooo worth it. This ranks second only to @Superscally's rancid toenail mankery. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's just say Dance like nobody is watching is a mantra I live by! Zero fucks given. I had somebody come up to see me after Radiohead at Old Trafford to say they'd been impressed by my energy!! I think that means we don't expect to see a fat bird dance for that long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing it to yourself is hardcore. @barkley87's suggestion of the sterile needle twisting through the nail is what the podiatrist did to me, with some scalpel blade action down the top and at the base...

Sasperella Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Cardio hiit tonight, but have decided a "proper" diet is needed. Had vodka soda last night in the pub rather than cider, and now eating a low calorie soup for lunch. It's vile. And definitely not helped by @Superscally's toe story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quark Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 This thread has taken a massive turn for the rotten. Compounded by @Woffy tagging me for no apparent reason, just so I'd see a page of masochism and pics of manky feet. Back on track after holiday, not lost as much as I'd expected. Unfortunately my knee still isn't playing the game, so I didn't get to continue my tradition of fitting at least one run while on holiday - took my kit, made it about 50 yards down the road and realised it wasn't happening. Gutted. On the plus side it survived a cycle in the Cotswolds on the weekend, so going to try running again tomorrow I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I’m not taking the blame for Rob’s Manky Toes! Sorry to hear about the knee still giving you bother. Today is rest and dirty dinner day in my house.

gigpusher Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 Well today was monthly weigh in and I was 9 lb's down taking my total loss for this year to exactly 50lb's. I have a lot of weight to lose so not even halfway to wear I need to be but hey going good guns still so I'm pleased. Should be the fittest I've been for a good few years at Glastonbury this year. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The starting was the hardest part. Not doing any fitness things on the level of anybody else in here but changing diet and getting out and walking more has been enough to make a huge difference for me.

Homer Posted May 31, 2019 Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 ... and the results are in. last week I exercised 6 times in prep for Shindig, mainly cardio, and lost a pound. This week I have exercised 4 times (50/50 weights to cardio as have been knackered) and have lost three pounds. Proof positive that going to festivals is indeed good for you (I lost weight the week I went to Shindig last year too I remember). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amyg1990 Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 My first dry week results are in... 3Ibs down! Super happy, shows how bad the booze can be for you! On top of the no alcohol I am tracking my calorie intake with my fitness pal in the week, did a 10km race saturday and a 5mile walk yday...(but thats a normal weekend for me) Defiantly the no booze that helps the most! Hope everyone else's fitness attempts are going well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barkley87 Posted June 5, 2019 Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 Despite feeling like I'm coming down with something (better now than in three weeks) I did a heavy legs session at the gym. I feel doubly rubbish now but at least I have stronger legs for all that walking I'm going to be doing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Divein Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 I played squash last night for only the 2nd time ever and probably the first time in a serious way. Only won one game but I really really enojyed it, could see me taking it up as a decent hobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
