Short daily writings

  • Recovery (janathon day 11)

    Wednesday had been going pretty well, on the whole. I’d slept in a bit, and had a reasonable day at work. I did a short gym session in the evening (2km rowing and some weights), some minor errands … and then things went somewhat off-piste.

  • Exhausted (janathon day 10)

    If you need confirmation that things don’t go the best when you’ve had insufficient sleep, just look at today. On the plus side, I did manage to finish the work last night, and that was somewhat important. And I also got quite a lot done at work today.

  • Late (janathon day 9)

    Working rather late tonight, so just a quick entry. The day has been pretty action-packed, all told. I kicked off with kettlebell circuits, worked all day, did an hour’s yoga and then did a few more hours of work.

  • Recovery (janathon day 8)

    According to my watch, I had more than nine hours of sleep last night. I’m not sure whether it’s just me, but often when I get some decent rest after a few days of insufficient, I find myself feeling kind of subdued. Today falls into that category.

  • Busy (janathon day 6)

    The view at my boot camp this morning was pretty special. It was a 6:30 start, so still very dark. However, there was a pretty clear sky, with a full moon hovering over the trees. Kind of like the header photo … but not. A busy hour.

  • Early start (janathon day 4)

    The header image is not a photo of my gym. One obvious difference is that it looks empty, whereas mine was comparatively heaving when I got there this morning. I had actually intended to go to my early bootcamp this morning, but after a disturbed night’s sleep I thought better of that idea; instead I went for plan B.

  • Work (janathon day 3)

    Back to work! It was a fairly eventful day there, in that a number of things went wrong due to problems coming up around holidays and missing data. I learned a few things on the way, though, and am now fairly clear on what needs to be done tomorrow.
