Treadmill and time off.

Last week was a low week, averaging an hour or two a day. Half the week I was at Mike’s which meant no treadmilling at all. Wednesday and Thursday I was sleeping about 12 hours a day and Friday came and I felt sick so I wrapped up the week in bed.

 

I have found out though that playing computer games while on the treadmill means I can stay on the treadmill for ages. I’m forced to take breaks since I don’t notice and suddenly realise I’m starving and a bit dizzy. But I do drink a lot of water.

 

Point is today I felt really listless. I’ve almost completed a project I’ve been working on for over six months:

It’s my book! 1001 First Lines.

For the Kindle version you can click here.

For the paperback version you can click here.

Paperback version is currently distributed by myself but will be available directly through Amazon in the next week. Yes it’s exactly as it sounds. It’s 1001 First Lines from books of fifteen different genres. I’ve been working super hard on it and I can’t believe it’s finally finished and published. So at the moment I’m having a bit of brain downtime which means days spent being quiet, in bed, being a drone.

Don’t get me wrong, I always have project going to work on. But since I need a time out and was sitting here with nothing to do that feeling of uselessness came over me. I’m glad I got on the treadmill even just to get the blood pumping and the esteem climbing. I have also been living off pizza. Seriously. I’m sick of pizza. I need veggies, and fruit.

 

Anyways for todays treadmilling while playing Team Fortress 2: 3 and a half hours, 10kms. I’ve upped my speed too and begun walking at 3kms ph, instead of 2.7. You don’t think it’s a jump but when you’re doing other stuff you definitely feel the speed.
