JANUARY.

January was bloody relentless, 31 days unbroken and 61 sessions, which works out at basically two a day and I still turned up for every one of them. CrossFit took the lion's share with 28 sessions, then 11 runs, 10 workouts and 7 rides, so the legs, arms and core got absolutely battered all month. 41 PBs fell along the way, including a 5K in 23:46 and a 1K in 4:33, which is the sort of thing that makes the whole lot feel worth it. Then there was the 5h 59m monster of a session that took the total to 43h 7m and 94.7 km, and honestly I'm still not sure what I was thinking. The peak heart rate of 167 bpm at parkrun was a nice reminder that the engine does actually work, even when everything else is shaking. Turns out the secret is just never giving yourself a day off to change your mind.
