Some guys have all the fun ........................

After the graphic description from the ironman on his early runs, Bigman will spare the details on hist visit to the gym in Cowdenbeath this evening!

It started with 30 minutes on the step machine whilst watching the Mens Downhill from Vancouver. It must have been really hard for the Canadians with so much expected, especially for the guy who was a member of Whistler Ski Club from about the age of four. And in the end, there were no medals to show for the 'throw caution to the wind' strategy and go for it.

A lesson for the Posse Ecosse in South Africa - steady does it. Success is to complete teh journey.

An then onto the weights for some upper body strength before returning to the floor for the new obligatory level of situps - 200. It is amazing how afetr about 60 or so your body starts to crave the next 10 and then another 10 and then another 10.

And tehn onto the bike. The spin class was fully booked and so it was 45 minutes on teh bike. Tonight, Bigman went for interval training . 5 minutes sprint at 100 rpm then down to 60 rpm for five then back up to 100rpm until the 45 minutes was up.

A good 90 minute workout all in all.
