Did my cooking Tues just before 5am. On coach later was talking to someone; bought him a Maccas cheese flatbread at Watford Gap.
Sprint training was enjoyable. Seeing a play today; Uncle Vanya.

Day off but wrote a report about running. My food later will be pasta, cauliflower again but a big one. Running training has to be spot on; i'm with guys who don't ease up. Not eating meat this month has made me leaner; my pants are falling off. I go to the gym when i can.

Still horrendously tired. I am happy to do Fri and Sun night shifts. In my spare time I'm working; serving. Like the work ethic. Things move quickly and before you know it you're part of something. Was at the Winter shelter Sat night for two hours and then again this morning after 6am. Had to hide away after. A cup of tea on sofa and bed till midday. Your free time goes quickly.

Spent a few hours in Sheffield Sat afternoon. Stopped in Chesterfield on way back; at Einsteins.

Thurs afternoon went to the Darts at the o2. Do love it; finishing on a strong checkout from behind. High fived the players at the oche. Went to Harvester afterwards. Thurs evening at SW London friends; another beautiful experience.

Our staff party in Leeds was spectacular; the place to do it. This was the day after Kew finished. Loved the first proper run of the year on Wed. The 42k is coming.

This week is Monday night at the social club, a cauliflower with chilli challenge midweek, a 60th birthday with old compadres.

Worked New Year's Day, working tomorrow, Sat and Sun. Punters on bar made it a great New Year's shift.  After midnight it was dancing night locally; I had steels on as i'd come from work. Peaky Blinders theme and people looked the part. Walked up the hill to second party; kept going till late.
Trains were hourly New Year's morning; ghost town in Nottingham. Is that the British way; eat too much at Christmas and drink too much a week later? Spoons was open .Only 5 people on the coach which arrived at Finchley Road 20 mins early. Direct Overground to Shepherds Bush; later a bus to Kew Bridge. Buses bridge different rail connections.
Catering problems at work. Cheese toastie as unexciting as i'd imagined; if you put this out on MasterChef you'd be frogmarched out of the pass. Didn't go to the gym; got a lift.
There will be no failure in this decade.
