Project Unstoppable Days 8 – 12: Not only yoga…

Mostly yoga, but not only yoga! Day 8 was Wednesday, it was another horrendously rainy rainy day here in the UK! Yes I know we should be used to it but somehow it is even more rainy than normal… This is relevant as it is curtailing my desire to do outside activities.

The best laid plans of mice and men..

So, on Sunday I was supposed to be competing in my second ever strongwoman competition. I was prepared, I had worked hard to master the dreaded axle presses that had been plaguing me and I was undoubtedly better prepared than before my last one. What is more I had more or less banished the obligatory…… Continue reading The best laid plans of mice and men..

Well… I was after a challenge!

Not so long ago (last week actually) I told you that I had entered another Novice Strongwoman competition (read all about it). I was happy about this, along with a little apprehensive, mainly because I have to figure out an axle clean, and don’t get me wrong I am still happy (and apprehensive) about this,…… Continue reading Well… I was after a challenge!
