    Tried out my new hydration vest today, fits really well and feels good when running :) Also got my MTB last weekend, just need to go and get helmet and accessories and can start training on that. Now just need to find a good second hand Kayak for us to train that part!! Excited to start working towards our first sprint race in May :)

    Im so desperate for Friday to get here and to finally have some days off!! Have been doing 60-65 hour weeks at work for over a month now and on the weekends ive been up ladders installing picture rails and setting up all sorts of stuff for the photography business we are starting for my partner. So to say im exhausted would not even scratch the surface haha and i really need to get back to my hobbies and proper routine before my mental health suffers immensely!!

    Maybe if you were sleeping more, you would recover quicker :P

    On a more serious note, have you had your iron/ferritin levels checked recently? I was right on the low end of okay for Ferritin but my GP has a sports medicine background and knows how active i am, he said he would like to see the level at around 80 instead of the 20 it was at. I have to supplement to get to that level but i feel so much better for it and feel like my body recovers alot better now which was one of the main reasons he wanted me to boost my levels





  • I decided to dip the toes into ETFs last December, using the Superhero app. Mix of Aussie and US, i just add money to my account any month i have any left over to do so, ill put some in savings and some into the ETF account. Probably looking at about 10% increase across the board when i hit the 1 year mark which has been nice. Your worst performer reminds me of much of my crypto, not worth the hassle of trading or withdrawing out!!



  • Sorry to hear. Relationships are tough, especially with kids. Be gentle with yourself and try to respond to the situation and conversations rather than react/defend. Hope the counsellor helps, either way though, from someone who has had 2 marriages end before 40, leaving is sometimes the best option for everyone and life gets to be great again given time. Relationships are absolutely worth fighting for but its definitely not a failure to walk away
