2011 100 Day Challenge - Days 8 - 19 - FLU :-(

I have to say it wasn't solely a chest infection, but the flu which landed me on my backside and bed for almost a week. So last week was an attempt to get back to some sort of health. I changed my diet, managed to do 2 very minor work outs and upped the fluid intake - again. I've also bought shares in a tissue manufacturing company as I am going through boxes of the wretched things (I'm kidding though I really should do it).

Challenge day tomorrow, and I have to say this first 20 days has been a real challenge for me. You can see why people who get stuck in ruts, have major illnesses or even minor ones that makes them alter plans and can stop them moving forwards with goals. Like I said, it has stopped me in my tracks - my challenge will be to regain my health and then my previous level of fitness so that I can begin again with my personal challenge to be able to run 5km by year end... with a view to run the City to Surf in 2012. I now have an added incentive as one of my clients from the UK will be here in Perth and we will be running together - eeek.

I've also been given an additional challenge - but I will reveal more in the lead up to the holiday season.
