I recently did a post on the fantastic range of free apps available on the Bupa website. Today I’d like to talk to you about how Bupa would like to keep you fit and healthy over the festive period. They’ve released an online advent calendar containing 25 days’ worth of free advice! +
12 Days of Christmas
I used to call myself Garfield because I hated Mondays. These days, I run my own design agency called Hill Valley Creative and I honestly don’t mind Mondays anymore. The Monday just gone however, will definitely be a day I’ll never forget. +

I recently posted the picture above to my Facebook wall and tagged in everyone who had said they ‘may’ run with me over Christmas. +
Exercise and Kids
A healthy diet for your child is just the same as ours really, balanced and varied. The more active your child is, the higher their need is to consume foods with energy. Here are a list of some of the foods I’d recommend giving your child to get the right balance and variation. +

…the geese are getting fat. Please put a penny in the Percy Hedley hat.
The photo above is from my meeting last week at Percy Hedley. I’d only met them for five minutes and they had me dressing up like Father Christmas. I said “I’m Father Fitness.” The things you do! Haha. +

I recently did a post over at 4Ever Fitness about a brilliant range of free apps that are available on the Bupa website. I’d like to discuss a few more with you now and they’re very relevant to my up and coming charity Christmas challenge. +

I came across a fitness blog the other day and I got a mention!
Tina Reale runs Best Body Fitness and she has a Saturday Shares page. If you scroll down to the heading ‘Reflect & Grow’ you’ll see next to ‘Use running for good?’ is my charity Christmas challenge. How nice is that? It’s great to see so many people supporting this challenge. The obvious aim of it all is to raise money for Percy Hedley but it seems to be developing into more than that. +
12 Days of Christmas
I visited the Percy Hedley head offices yesterday. I had a great time and Ed, Maria and Sheila made me feel so welcome so a special thank-you to them. +

Thought I’d have a laugh with this post and list my top ten common gym excuses. We’ve all heard them so nothing will be new here but it’s quite amusing anyway. I honestly don’t know why people do it. If I don’t want to do something, I just say no thanks. There’s no need to make an excuse and a rubbish one at that. +

Some people exercise to music, some don’t. For me, it depends. If I’m running in a team event like Total Warrior or the Newcastle Stampede then I definitely wouldn’t. If I’m running my local 5k and the Pier the Pier, I definitely will. This is mainly due to the fact that at some spells I’ll be running alone and if you don’t need to follow instructions, I’ll listen to music. In the gym, I always listen to music. I couldn’t imagine not. +
