The best laid plans !

Sunday Funday is here again and this was going to be the BIG one, it was sand dunes day !!

I had decided a few days ago, that I would cycle there, about 30 minutes at a leisurely pace, enjoy the coast road and the sunshine and it would be a good cool down on the way back.

A very good plan I thought, until I woke up this morning to what was easily the worst weather we have had in Jersey for a few months, non stop rain and very windy.
Nonetheless, I had it in my head that I was cycling and I was going to get soaked there anyway.
A quick phone call to Ben, to make sure it was going ahead and off I went, the weather was a little bit worse than it had seemed from the cosiness of my house, but made it in one piece, only to be informed Ben had decided to change it to an indoor session, on a local five a side astroturf park.

 RESULT !!

Well at least we all thought so, until Ben put us through a seemingly non stop session, which included shadow boxing, sprints in teams, wheelbarrow races, piggy back races, press ups, plank (as always) partner drills, plank, finishing off with an ab circuit, which included the plank.

Not really sure which was worse this or the sand dunes ??

But Ben being the very thoughtful, kind soul that he is, decided, he would (at no extra cost to us) put on an extra session on the sand dunes, this Friday evening (what else would we be doing on a Friday evening) just so we wouldn't miss out on anything.

A very hard into the wind all the way, or at least thats how it seemed, and Sunday Funday was over.

Back into the gym and boxing work on Tuesday and Thursday, sand dunes on Friday (preparing my rain dance now) and then we'll be back to Sunday Funday again.

Looks like its going to be  a good week.
