It was my birthday yesterday - so new year for me and a new start, well a continuation of my journey of self improvement - so glad I joined this course - just need to complete the last one 🫣 - only a few more exercises to do 😁

Hi I’m Vaughan and I’m moving to the summit code from Ollie Ollerton’s other programs where I’ve successfully changed my mindset and my body and wish to carryon with the process I’m glad to meet you all

45mph winds in Jersey today, courtesy of the tail end of a storm! I spent three hours marshalling a trail half marathon along the north coast, checking runners through and cheering them on. Then decided to head out for a windy 5K run myself. Meanwhile, I’ve spent most of the afternoon trying to persuade my 13 year old daughter to actually leave the house. Her and her friends have spent the day chatting online and playing games together. No incentive to go outside and actually meet up! When I was 13, being sent to my bedroom was a punishment! 😂 I genuinely worry about this Indoor Generation. Sometimes I think we need to stop encouraging them to get outside and start insisting on it. Small victory though. I did manage to get her out for a walk... Anyone else fighting this battle with their teenagers? Or am I just turning into a grumpy old man? 😂. It were better in my day...

Good Morning. Yesterday I did the work. HIIT at 11:30, walks in the evening. Today is Saturday with training scheduled for right after I post this: cycle work longer ride today, endurance training, boxing and core training, and a bit of yoga. A lesson I keep coming back to from a book I was recently reading: do the work in front of you, one day at a time, and let rest do its part. This week proved that again. What lesson from a mentor or a book has stuck with you? Put it in the comments. I’d love to hear your story.

As some of you know, my Mrs wants us to separate so I've been moved to the top floor bedroom. It's quite small 😂. So I'm using it as an opportunity to make my life easier. Do I need 14 work shirts? 6 pairs of running shorts? 42 pairs of socks?? 17 t shirts? I like them and do wear them but it's excessive so I've taken half my wardrobe to charity. Less choice means less brain power used which in turn means a simpler life, and more energy to focus on what's important.
