I'm still around...

[LeeU]

Due to work commitments I've been in Norway, Barcelona for 2 weeks and Finland last week and next.

I'm afraid running has been off of the agenda mainly due to 75 hour weeks, travelling at weekends, etc, I did a cheeky 30 minutes this morning though.

My hotel next week has a treadmill, I will be on that 2-3 times next week, I'm hoping to get finished early in the week and fly home, in the last 5 weeks I've been at home for 1.5 days per week.

I start my Christmas holidays next Friday so that means back to the running properly then.

I hate airports and hotels, now I need to start thinking about a holiday March/April time, I'm thinking Mexico/Caribbean for the sun, sand and I want to try Scuba diving.

Hello, and nice to "see" you! It's hard when work and other commitments get in the way, and travel can make things particularly tough, but I am sure you will get back on track. Sounds like your Christmas hols are starting nice and early - that's very good news! Also very impressed by your plans for the spring holidays. I hope you manage to sort that out and to give scuba diving a go.

Thanks Helene, I always book the last 2 weeks of the year as holidays, this year however, I still have another 11 days to use (I got the agreement to carry them over but the current schedule is a killer).

I was going to try scuba a couple of years ago in Egypt but the kids were with us them and my (then) 15 year old son discovered he could get served alcohol from the hotel bar, it wasn't much of a rest after that.

He's now 21 and won't be going with us, it will just be Mrs LeeU and myself.

Hey you..I thought you had abandoned us!!!! Great to know you will be back with us! xx

[LeeU Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

Hey, you really don't think I'm going to just drop off or disappear without saying something first do you?

I may have graduated the program but I'm not finished on my journey as yet. I know I've veered off of my training/diet at times over the last few weeks but I'm back on it this week as my hotel has a gym with a treadmill and I did more than half the work on this project last week so should be able to hit it at least 3 times this week with a little bit of swimming thrown in for good measure (I really hope anyway).
