The only time you need to stockpile this much toilet paper is for the half an hour just before a race #runnerstummy #nerves #nervous


Trying to lose weight whilst maintaining strength. I know this is very difficult to do but any pointers in the right direction?


People who say the cross trainer is boring aren’t working out hard enough on it 🥵🥵🥵


Does anyone else shake their morning smoothie without the lid screwed on properly so it goes all over the kitchen and their suit? Every. Single. Morning. #neverlearn

So you try to dispel the reputation of Triathlon being a middle class sport...and then you see @BlenheimTri entry fees in excess of £100 for a SPRINT!!!. ALL Tri Organisers, you need to have a word with yourselves if you want to attract people into the sport. #RantOver


Chest and arm workout before getting out for a steadyish 5k. Miles away from where I need to be but 8 months solid work and I should be there or thereabouts!
