I Know it's been some time since i have updated but the back end of last year hasn't been the best. after a family illness and a few other issues, it been difficult to things sorted! but as we swiftly move in 2013, all is well and i have made some decent progress.
Since my last post, my training regime has somewhat changed, as i have moved to a new gym and i have acquired a fantastic work out & nutrition planner - LDNMuscle. With there help, i now have a fantastic training plan, to cater for all of my challenges. this involves 4 full sessions hitting all the main muscle groups HARD! along with some decent HIIT cardio sessions too!. for anyone wanting nutrition & workout advice, along with hints and tips visit www.ldnmuscle.com or follow @LDN_muscle on facebook and twitter.
I have also received sponsorship from supplement supplier my protein.com, with the supplement mega store agreeing to supply all of my supplements for throughout my training and challenges. for anyone wanting any great tasting pure protein visit www.myprotein.com or follow the link below for my favourite blend http://www.myprotein.com/sports-nutrition/impact-whey-protein/10530943.html
Last but not least, GPS giant View ranger have donated a upgraded gps tacking account to help with my tracking whilst out and about on my challenges. you can download the app from your app or android store for highly accurate GPS tracking.
So with decent feedback from company's regarding sponsorship, it was on to the planning for the challenges. First up, the mighty Hadrian's wall. it's difficult one, not just for the distance but to do it in how many days. We have planned to do it in 5 days and our itinerary is as follows :
THURSDAY 2nd OF MAY - Wallsend to East Wallhouses (18miles/29k)
FRIDAY 3rd OF MAY - Wallhouses to Chollerford (12miles/19k)
SATURDAY 4th OF MAY - Chollerford to Gisland (21mile/33.5k)
SUNDAY 5th OF MAY - Gisland to Carlisle (18.5 mile/29.5k)
MONDAY 6TH - Carlisle to Bowness-on-Solway (14.5 mile/23k) - FINISH
Weather conditions permitting, this is how it should pan out. With what looks like a very daunting challenge, it will take some super training!
So that's pretty much it for the first blog of the year, and the first post of many regarding my triple challenge. lets not forget why i am doing all this. my charity, the motor neurone disease is a fantastic charity who help all sufferers with MND, including my good friend Keith Hallway. All monies raised will go towards the on going help and support to sufferers and the continued research into finding a cure for this awful disease. Don't forget to check back for updates and reports.
