IRON MARCH

No booze. :beers: (I mean, you can drink if you like)
No ciggies. :smoking: (maybe one or two is okay)
No junk food. :fries: (or a pizza a day, maybe a tube of Pringles for lunch)
Train every day. :weight_lifting_man: (Or not. Whatever takes your fancy)
Be a winner. (In your own mind! Your spouse/parents/kids don’t give a hoot)

Post your progress below. (Or don’t. Whatever.)

That’s not very Will•I•Am now, is it?

Round and round, up and down, around the clock
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday (do it)
Friday, Saturday, Saturday to Sunday (do it)
Get, get, get, get, get with us, you know what we say (say)
Train every day, t-t-t-train every day

Nah, just go to the pool by June.
I mean, you do not have to swim.
Looking at the water is good enough.

The crowd and tailwind will get you through the riptides of Rivington.

Does shandy count?
I haven’t had an “alcoholic” drink this year but have been to the pub a couple of times (by car) and had a pint of shandy without even thinking about dry January/February etc. I definitely didn’t have any in January but may have blown February if shandy is a no no.

Day 2. Still hungover. Forced myself to train pretty hard and it felt fine. Would be nice to go to the pub now.
