Look what happens when I have a weekend rest day!

For some unknown reason this week my rest day has fallen on a weekend which is usually not good news.
Great news for the house and everything else I mean it is only around 5pm on Saturday and already all of the shopping and washing has been done, the house has been cleaned and I have cooked all of the meals for the snack and even managed to make some protein ball snacks to boot.
I have planned my week, answered emails and tried to keep myself busy.
I even put on real clothes and make-up to go shopping for gods sake!
Anyway I got caught up reading some of the blogs linked to profiles on Beginner Triathlete and thought - HEY! I NEED to do that too!
The fact that I already have 2 other blogs linked to my businesses and the fact I am an Ambassador and Blogger for Lorna Jane entered my mind for a nano second but I dismissed the thought this could be a little bit of an overkill with the thought that this one is for me and not for anyone else.
Anyone wants to read along that is great but essentially this baby is for me so I may not be as tidy and politically correct as I usually am with my other blogs but that is entirely the point!

At the moment my goals are a bit at odds with each other which is pretty standard for me!

I have a light frame that hates to add muscle even thought I really, really, really, really want some!

I am seeing some muscle go on after months of hard effort at the gym, this has been helped by the fact I stopped triathlon training and running in general BUT right now I am training for a half marathon sooo again I will be going nowhere unless I eat my bodyweight in protein each day BUT I will persevere :)

Ok a rundown of training for this week:

MONDAY:
20 minute run - only just starting to run properly again after an extended break (apart from the odd run when the sun was out - ie: NEVER!)

TUESDAY:

1 hour weights - back / glutes / abs

WEDNESDAY:
45 minute run that felt like crappola.
1 hour weights - shoulders / arms

THURSDAY:
45 minutes taekwondo

FRIDAY:
30 minute run
1 hour weights - chest / Legs

SATURDAY:
Rest Day

Will be my long run - 50 minutes at the mo.
