At my local Parkrun there was an uphill section as well, plus it was three laps of the course. So by the third time I got to the uphill part I barely made it up.

Falling off the wagon is having it twice a day for a month. One is nothing, get back at it.

Easy club run last night 4.5 miles @10:30 minute miles.
Then drove back up to work last night, up early for my first Hyrox class at the new gym. Been a few years since I've done a proper session like that.
Partnered with a friend from work who wants to do a mixed Hyrox at some point this year.

Good luck with the Hyrox, looks mental hard! Also, topless competing looks mandatory for all males

Not for me, I've done mens doubles twice. 1 hour 27 minutes first time and 1 hour 24 second. I really want a sub 1 hour 20 minutes as that means 10 minutes per run and exercise!Good luck with the Hyrox, looks mental hard! Also, topless competing looks mandatory for all males

Last few CrossFit classes have killed me! Strict Press on Friday - ascending/descending set. Saturday was a "hero" workout "Will Lindsay" - 10 sets of 3 devil's press, 22 alternate lunges with dumbbells and 19 air squats. Over 200 lunges and 190 squats meant my legs didn't work so well on Sunday. Neither upper or lower body fully recovered for Push Press yesterday. Apparently should be 20-30% heavier than strict press but I could only add a couple of kgs.
Got a few days off this week on my bike so should feel a bit more recovered before my next class.

The Hyrox seems like a different class of fitness again, we have a couple of gyms that do the training for it now.

I like it, as my best part is the running. Also some events I'm better at like sled push and pull, row, farmers carry etc

Dont punish yourself and dont let the guilt affect you. Every food and drink should be on the menu, just have it in moderation. Enjoy it.
I love KFC but it cripples me with indigestion everytime so i havent had it in over 12months.
Do you have Instagram?

Just weighed myself again now and I'm 13 stone 6. I'm honestly not sure how this is happening. Maybe the scales are broken.Weighed myself yesterday and I was 13 stone 8 & 3/4 - down from around 13 stone 11 last time I weighed myself. Was surprised at that as I haven't done anything excercisey in a long time. I even had three takeaways last weekend as well, although they were all on the healthier side - Pho beef brisket noodle soup on Friday, sushi on Saturday, chicken shish with bulghur wheat on Sunday. I think Friday I had an Oreo milkshake too, but liquid calories obviously don't count.
Joking aside, we must be doing something right with our portions. My wife is claiming credit for the concoction of pills she's got me on too, but who knows.

Happens but at least you went. Had a great workout last night but last week the gym was too full around the free weights so tried to mix it up on some of the machines. Just couldn't get into it.
