I thought I would do a quick update every couple of weeks on how my training for my first adventurethon is progressing for anyone who is interested.

Was going to start CrossFit this week but sick with a cold so I decided to stay with similar program to last week.
So overall I am happy with where I am at and the body seems to be holding up OK. I have ordered a new pair of running shoes that I am hoping will help me out with some calf and shin pain. It is only niggling and I have really been hitting it with the roller and stretching. After a rest from running it seems to recover OK at the moment. My biggest focus now is on getting the diet on track. While I have lost just over 1kg in the last two weeks, it really should be more considering the exercise I am doing, and I know my chocolate addiction is to blame. Damn you chocolate!! My goal is to lose 5kg in the next 5 weeks. I usually find that if I increase my water intake (leave a jug on the bench), increase my greens (some at every meal), and ban all chocolate, I find that I am able to drop the weight. I eat carbs at breakfast, but then don’t eat a lot of simple carbs during the rest of the day.
If you know any good links for a fitness journey of any kind, for weight loss, or regarding nutrition please feel free to leave a link in the comments section. That would be great!!
