And having a melt down on the MSc front. I’m still undecided as to whether to continue. Session with personal trainer over zoom this morning. It always helps even though it completely knackers me (but in a good way).

The Scribbler May 2020 8:06pm, 8 May 2020 4889 posts	0 The Scribbler Sorry you’re feeling down ER and night-owl. I feel very uncomfortable with the jingoism of the commemorations, so chose not to partake. ER are you managing any kind of exercise in isolation?
Eynsham Red May 2020 8:53pm, 8 May 2020 5793 posts	0 Eynsham Red Yes Scribbler, I’m doing at least thirty minutes a day of something (except today). I do an aerobic type DVD three to four times a week, Pilates, and I use my turbo trainer two to three times a week. I’ll do forty minutes to an hour or more on the turbo. Probably more regular exercise than before lockdown. I’m aware that if I don’t do something it can affect my mood, but today I think it was a case of envy, jealousy, frustration, call it what you want that I couldn’t take part. And to be honest, we quite possibly wouldn’t have joined in even if we could have! It was a case of seeing others enjoying themselves in a way we couldn’t that rankled I think.

Got something to say?
