One thing I’m completely useless at is keeping records of training, and yet time and, time again successes in sport are achieved by people with a desire to record every training event in some sort of diary.

Thought I’d title this a blog based on something someone else has said, so it’s a little like I don’t know exactly what I’m exactly write about.
