Running Riot!

Okay so I've picked up running and rather than dive in head first I have been following the Zest 60 Second plan, and you know what? It's ace! I hated running. I really honestly hated it after I got thrashed in the 800m race at school when I was 15. It was humiliating and it hurt like nothing before. And to be honest with you, I've avoided it ever since, I will jog my way to the bus stop if I have to, I will happily play badminton or ride my bike but running? No thank you!

So why running........?

Operation Fit and Fabulous!

So for the last couple of weeks we've been setting out on our little missions and  here it the basic round- up of how I've been doing...........

Me and My friend Emily... Feeling Fabulous at Pendulum!

The Stride of Pride (not the drunken one!)

Today I received an email telling me that my beautiful beautiful Nike trainers had been dispatched, which means they will be with me by next week!! Not only that but I invested in some running capris and full length joggers (for badminton and volleyball) from Next today and will be donning my new gear tomorrow after mid-day.

Setting Tongues Wagging!

It appears that us Operation Fit and Fabulous are a topic of conversation among ourselves. As we update our progress in OFAF, it seems as if there are a few rushes of emotions, all different and all equally important. I've just read a blog by @ali_edgar (http://ali4edgar.wordpress.com/) and it seems we've set tongues wagging and thoughts spiralling.

Hitting Myself Hard!

Okay so the title makes me sound self abusive and apparently I am... just not physically. This week around campus I've notice more and more girls who seem really happy.. But are nowhere near my size. So I figured what better way to motivate myself to get off my backside and DO something than to spend £60 on the campus gym and £70 on a new pair of running shoes? Let's face it: no student is crazy enough to spend that kind of money without putting it to good use! I mean really that's £130 I could waste if I didn't use it!!!

Welcome to the Vlogging World!

Okay so last night I found inspiration for my blog... A VLOG!!! Yes I know I'm 20 I'm supposed to know all about new media technologies etc etc, However I am a technical dunce!

So Vlogging, what is it? Basically it's a video blog. Rather than typing it up, you say it and film yourself and post the video....

All's Hair in Love and War!!

Have you ever felt like ripping your hair out because let's face it, it just won't go right?! Like many of us women (and lovely gents) my hair is my pride and joy and when it won't stay in a style or is just looking a bit dull then that is it-- I hate it! There have been tears and tantrums over the years and money frittered away on products left, right and centre!

Imedeen Me Up!

So I got back from my Grandma's house this morning to find a surprise package from @beachbumbeauty containing a 2 month supply of Imedeen Hair and Nail supplements. This is part of our Operation Fit and Fabulous, and a mission for Week 2....

Feeling Fabulous!

I've just had my hair cut and I feel AMAZING! Really. I've been growing my hair from a short bob that I had cut in (due to too much hair-dying) way back in April 2010 and it is now just past my shoulders and at a length I really love, so I thought I'd get a bit more of a style cut into it! Now I feel fabulous.

Operation Fit and Fabulous!

So you may have heard something about this on the wind.. Well, I'm going to fill you in.............
