WK 6 R2 tonight!

[kazzy40]

Feel prepared. Have really upped my fluid intake this week in the hope it will ease my calf cramps. I have always been so terrible at not drinking during the day but I have had a 2 litre bottle of squash (sugar free) on my desk every day this week (and I have been drinking it, not just looking at it!). This will be my new habit. I am not going to think about Saturdays 25 minutes...ooops just did

Bring on tonight.

you want to up that by another litre at least, more if it is hot and on run days

Yes its 2 litres at work then lots more when I'm home, thanks for the advice tho. Going from zero water to 3 litres is hard lol. Not to mention on the old bladder but I need to change my ways. I noticed I haven't had one of my regular headaches either this week so it's all good

It does take a while to adapt but the benefits are tremendous: better sleep(apart from getting up to have a pee), better skin, better digestion...
