Training Update (pre holiday) 18 Feb 26
I’m prepping to go away for a few days, packing some gym kit and wondering whether I have to travel in trainers so I can work out and keep posting while away!!Rich was massively into fitness hence “Fit for Feb”. He got me back into the gym (a place I avoided) and I worked out that sitting on the EGYM equipment while watching him lift weights was actually quite a pleasant way to spend an afternoon. I did wonder if his knees or back would give way as he loaded the bar with more and more KG’s - it was an impressive spectacle for someone with such a lean physique.
Rich kept himself physically strong, incredibly strong. If there was a question on how to hack health, Rich would have the answer. I’m really missing his advice right now.
In memory of Rich and to make him proud as he looks down from above, I’ve decided to get my body fit while raising funds for Combat Stress.
I joined a local gym at Harwell called The Fitness Experts. They are brilliant!!
As I do each challenge I trust in a higher power (I call this Spirit Rich) to find me the right people and places and once again the right people and place has been found. I’m on a 6 week challenge so I’ll keep going till the end of March and update you as I go.
All I ask is that you donate the equivalent of a cup of coffee if you’re enjoying my posts. If your “donated out” then please just keep spreading awareness - if anyone you know has served and is suddenly struggling with anxiety or other mental health symptoms, help is out there.
Why not get fit yourself - join my team - I’d love some company on this journey. :)
I am raising vital funds for life-changing mental health treatment for veterans.
Combat Stress is the UK's leading charity for veterans' mental health. For over a century, they've helped former servicemen and women deal with issues like trauma, anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Today, they provide support to veterans from every service and every conflict.
I’m taking on vital steps towards ensuring veterans can get the support they need.
Thank you so much for your support.
