Morning barefoot run, 28 Feb
3 mins 40 secs.
The ground was wet and quite covered with leaves or twigs, plus I didn’t have my glasses/contacts on, so I moved reaaaally slowly on the balls of my feet. Took me that long to cover 250 metres. Quite a wake-up method for the calves. Soles aren’t feeling tender or ‘rubbed’. I can tell you that in terms of comfort, wet grass > wet pavement by a LOT.

Bodypump class, 27 Feb
Felt the burn in every major muscle group and triceps :) I’ve never done so many dead-lifts and squats in my whole life.
Weight on the barbell: Sometimes 2.5 kg, sometimes 5 kg. Working out the arms is always 2.5kg, working out the legs and butt is always 5kg.
I seem to have a relatively weak core - ab exercises always destroy me :P But I’m learning to court the...

Muesli bar recommendation!
Today I had $14 to spend on some kind of sweet snack I can easily store and add to my work out kit (I struggle to work out on a growling stomach). I bought a big box of Food for Health’s The Gluten Free Bar with Cranberries, which contained 18 bars.
It’s a chewy muesli bar with cranberry-vanilla flavour. I just tried one and personally, I like it. :)
Gluten-free, wheat free, peanut...

Morning barefoot run, 26th Feb
3 mins 40 secs on a dewy field. Then walked home (pavement).
The grass smelled and was wet, which was a nice wakening for me this morning. The dampness got me lifting my feet and knees up, rather than driving forward on auto-pilot. Foot soles are feeling tender and well-scrubbed.
Had a late night last night, so feeling a bit tired around my eyes. And since yesterday evening during work, my left...
