Headed off to Melbourne yesterday at 6am for Cancer Council Relay For Life at Albert Park, Melbourne with a plan to walk 50ks. Was really looking forward to the challenge, and also looking forward to meeting up with special friends that I don’t get to see as often as I’d like. It turned out to […]

Foxy Challenge: Week 5 Wrap
Week 5 of Fernwood Get Foxy 12 Week Challenge was another good week. A highlight this week was the Food Coaching Club session, where Foxy participants were invited to take a plate of healthy food for tasting and to be judged by the Foxys. The highlight for me was a savoury sundried tomato/spinach muffin. Much […]

Expresso Bikes
I’m really pleased that my gym Fernwood Gym Bendigo has recently installed Expresso Bikes. I’d never heard of them until seeing them there but now can’t stay away from them. They make riding an indoor bike fun and a great calorie burner. The challenging and motivating thing about these bikes is that there is a […]

Easter Wrap: 2000 Calorie Challenge
Today was a challenge to get calories up to 2000, but then had a bit of a burst at the end. Started out on the bike as usual. No hills today, as the legs were feeling a bit wobbly. Rode with the group, and we chose a flat route, out with a tail wind and […]
