Day 16

We did a variation of the 300 training session this morning. I haven't done one in a while and really threw myself into it and got my heart pumping, I imagined the oxygen just flooding every cell! Felt so good! It's a great muscle building workout whilst keeping the heart rate up. Strength training is essential to maintain or build muscle mass which assists with weight control and bone density and strength. Tuesday morning we are meeting at Limestone Park for cross training so if you want to join us for some action - come along! Meeting in the car park near Lyons Road at 5:30am. Today I have been working on putting the feelers out for interest in a new project I'll be launching this year under the Transition Ipswich umbrella - Ipswich Kitchen Gardening Community - a community of people growing food locally that connects both online and in person, shares knowledge, seeds, surplus food, friendship & fun. Then this evening I attended an inspiring presentation by Beyond Zero Emissions on sustainable energy solutions for Australia. Europe is really leading the way and we saw many examples of practical and renewable energy sources that we can tap into! I enjoyed a lovely quiet ride home under a sky full of stars, a frozen banana, blueberry, coconut, chia and flaxseed smoothie, wrote my blog and now it's time for bed!
