The Next Step

So when you have dedicated a year to getting fit and healthy, how do you keep going once you get close to your goal? How do you keep going when the pressure of compliments starts to get on top of you?

What is the next logical step for me to keep momentum and not get caught up in the usual weight loss/gain cycle. The time has almost come for my focus to shift from weight loss to strength and fitness. It is almost time to rid myself of weigh in's and move on to PB's.

I have now registered for Tough Mudder.

What better way to train towards peak fitness than joining one of the most gruelling fitness events on the planet.

For those of you who have not heard of the event, it is an 18km course with 16+ obstacles devised by the English SAS. It includes electric shocks, ice baths, climbing walls and lots of mud.

So as I celebrate Easter and move into training mode, in the back of my mind I will be developing the mental toughness to get through this next stage!
