Health Kick Update
// 12th July
Since my big effort to buy back some energy from my web developer lifestyle a lot of people have asked how it went after the first morning, when I got up half an hour earlier to go for a run.
I’m afraid that since then it hasn’t gone so well. In fact it hasn’t gone at all. I only managed it the once time, and then my laziness got the better of me. It’s worth pointing out though that for seventy two hours following that twenty minute run I felt absolutely fantastic.
I realise it doesn’t really make sense - the extra energy gained from the run means it’s much easier to get up and do it again. But sometimes I can be quite lazy. Also it’s mid-Winter and I dislike the cold a lot.
(Coincidentally, two days ago I started aching all over. Mid-afternoon I started shivering, and left work. By the time I got home I was shivering violently. That subsided though and I’ve been steadily improving).
So tonight I’m going to start a new fitness scheme, one that’s tailor made for me. It is going to involve listening the extended version of Do It Again by The Chemical Brothers (if I’m feeling particularly energetic I’ll watch the film clip too), and watching Le Tour de France - because just thinking about riding a bike for six hours is so exhilarating it gets my heart rate up.

If the shivering didn’t subside, you could’ve marked that down as exercise. Weren’t you looking for incidental ways to exercise?

To Quote “Joel” from ‘Joel on software’:
“we used to keep a sit-up board in the office and do sit-ups while we were doing compiles. After a few months of programming I had killer abs.”
That was back when it took somewhere between 8~15 minutes to compile a program ;) That’s what you need- A slower computer =D
