Day 43- Gritty

Patrick has said that we are in the phase of pure GRIT determination, and I completely see what he means. We are far from the nervous exciting shores from whence we came, when we boarded this good ship PCP and not quite near enough our destination that we can see land yet. We're surrounded by water and have to stay afloat! Though I must say, if I could pick a group of people to peddle for our lives for dry land it would be you lot!

It the sort of time where you may be most likely to go off course, with no sight of land, you've travelled so far already and the temptation to just drop anchor and live out there is quite strong! There are 2 key things that are spurring me onwards:
1) eventhough I cna't see where I'm going yet, I can visualise it (in the form of Jessica Biel!) so I have to keep that image fresh and real in my mind, to keep the destination in sight.
2) I haven't brought this up yet but I'm sure others have- There is another ship a few weeks behind us! I don't want it to overtake me. I set off first and damn it I am going to arrive first! its so srtange to read the blogs of brave lads and lasses who have joined the most recent gang. Hello and welcome to you all! I still felt like a beginner and then i reaslised I've already learned so much and thought about my first week and second week and how I've come on from there. That gives me a bit of a nudge too. Not to mention those amazing folk who have recently completed. Their blogs feel like post cards from our destinatinon!

Snacking on egg whites mid morning is bloody strange- there I said it! other than that the diet is OK and whilst tweaked from last week, not a huge change.

Work outs are good. I have managed to entice Will into doing some bits and bobs with me and I think he's got the bug. He totally dominates in the back arms and chest work but I'm the reigning abs champion in our house! BAM. Looking forward to working hard tonight.

I have heard mumblings of supersets...... what are these I wonder!? I'm sure we'll find out soon enough.

Keep up the good work gang.

  2. Fleur, glad that we are all in this together. Will grit my teeth along with you. Although did have a funny moment during my workout today when I thought... what if I crack a tooth whilst I am gritting?
