I have seriously been MIA from the blogging
scene for a while now!
Unfortunately, terrible circumstances
surrounding Christmas and New Years meant I decided to take a bit of a step
back from everything and spend time with those that I love, so although I have
missed my blog (and am sorry to anyone that has missed it), I do feel my reasons
were in the best interests of those closest to me!
Not only have I neglected my blog, I have
also neglected my NY resolutions- the annual “Exercise more + Eat better” resolution
did not even get a look in before I was tucking into my 14” Meat Feast and the
remains of my Christmas chocolates! So I have decided to start again… And as
today is Ash Wednesday, aka the start of Lent, I think it is as good a time as
any to give up the junk food and start on my new health kick!
Of course some serious motivation is needed
and I have found it in the form of my newly ordered trainers.
Nike Core TR (£52.00 JD Sports)
The Nike Core Trainers are entry-level (of
course) running shoes incorporating Nike Air technology to add a spring to the
step! I have gone with some simple black beauties to prove how seriously I am
taking this gym lark… and at £52 they don’t exactly break the bank.
Unlike Nike's latest creation, The Nike Flyknit Lunar1+.
Nike Flyknit Lunar1+ (£140 Nike)
Retailing for the slightly higher price of £140 (store.nike.com), the Flyknit Lunar1+ is the result of four years work from the Nike production team and was designed based on feedback from some of the most elite runners and athletes to create a featherweight, flexible design that is described as a 'second skin-fit.' With their shocking pink and flash of yellow they would certainly make a bold statement, ideal for any fashion conscious, hard-core runner. £140 is by no means an unreasonable price tag for such a shoe, however, unfortunately for me it is slightly out of budget right now! But if the shoes are this good, perhaps I will embrace this new found fitness freak a lot quicker than first thought... I will keep you posted!
Wish me luck!!
