Sunday 3rd June 2018 - fitness session, dealing with issues, targets

On Friday - the 1st - I posted a FB entry regarding the next three months (13 weeks) - over the summer it is a terrific time to set targets and realistic goals. The sunshine, light mornings, long evenings, should all combine to get you out of where you live, lift spirits, and get you more active. I laid out around 8 targets - weekly and for the three months - and hopefully I can stick it out and see where I am personally at the end of August. But it is also good for the project and HMHB.

It was terrific to see Wayne yesterday at our fitness session on Highbury Fields. PT Dean put us through our paces - we both struggled along, with lots of wheezing and moaning, but ultimately both finished the session feeling glad we had taken part.  Wayne was on our first Ajani a year ago, and it is great to see him sorting himself out and looking forward to the future - and we can feel proud that we are part of that journey for him. (I think I'll ask him to do a little video feedback for us).

After last week's mini setback, we are starting our Ajani with the Medical Centre this Wednesday, and part of that will be getting the users to come down on Saturdays to the fitness session. It would be fantastic to start getting between 5-10 people attending on Saturdays. We are hoping this Wednesday will be better attended. Luke, Dean and Lazza are all keen to continue the success of last year, and prove ourselves.

This sort of problem shows we can deal with issues - and it is a great lesson for all of us - regardless of whether it is work or personal. This small setback we instantly looked at as a challenge. It enabled us to review our procedures, and I had a great chat with mentor Scott around that. BUt it also shows that there is no hiding - no point in worrying. We dealt with it well.
