About to go for a 5k, but look what came in the post!!!

Woohoo!

My first ever medal!!!πŸŽ–

Not for running, though. Rather for indoor rowing 🚣 the English Channel! But what a beauty, right?

And what were the workouts helping me to row virtually to France, I hear you ask?

Well, they are all up in our Strength & Flex forum in our new topic folder for workouts using equipment!

healthunlocked.com/strength...

(πŸ˜‰πŸ’ͺJust couldn’t help linking it to Strength & Flex)

Happy rowing, running and working out!

Understated it is not! That's a proper bit of bling, well done. You can take the paddling pool back outside now, careful not to slosh it on the carpet πŸ˜‰

Woohoo πŸŽ‰ I am suitably impressed and what an attractive medal πŸ™‚

I used to row Fours & Eights and sculls in my youth πŸ˜‚ but not a fan of the machines . Hope your Hadrian’s wall medal arrives soon too πŸ‘Œ

Having read of your virtual exploits I’m thinking of suggesting one to my daughters for my birthday that’s coming up soon πŸ™‚

Wondered about Hadrian’s as it might be nice to visit afterwards , we holiday a lot in Galloway so it’s not that far to explore , however I am also drawn to the long haul of β€˜The Camino’ πŸŽ„

Maybe finish by Xmas πŸ˜‚πŸŽ„πŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ˜‚ or birthday 2022 🀣

Well done again on your achievements and of course the bling πŸ₯‡πŸ₯‡

Thank you! Yes, the virtual Hadrian’s Wall was a great experience and as I write this, some walking books and maps about Hadrian’s Wall are lying in front of me, ready to be wrapped for my husbands birthday tomorrow. So we’re planning to run/walk it when restrictions allow!

I’ve never rowed for real but was always fascinated by the sport. I used to kayak a lot when I was young, though. So loved water sports.
