I didn't have a brilliant day at the gym today...

...as soon as I walked in, I noticed how warm it was in there. Then when I got going on the treadmill I was sweating buckets. After just 1.6 miles I just couldn't get going. I don't think it was just the temperature, but maybe also the after effects of yesterday.  Oh, I don't know, its just one of those low energy days....

Anyway, I jogged another quarter of a mile, but it was good and had to walk the rest of the 5k. I did do my 3k on the rower, albeit a bit slower than usual. I did 9 minutes on the elliptical and 300 sit ups. So it wasn't an altogether wash out, but it still makes you feel like you've failed somehow.

This afternoon I have not only attacked a HUGE pile of ironing, but also did my little eco bit for the garden. I unscrewed two parts of the drain pipes and put an old dustbin under one behind the garage where its hidden with the mint, and another with the brewery bucket which is hidden behind the rubbish bins so you can't see it from the road. I was also thinking about collecting water from the drain out the front. If I put the baby bath under it when the shower  or the washing machine is on I could collect quite a bit of water. I just need to make sure the soaps won't harm the plants. Theres my task for the afternoon.
