I swear the older I get, the longer the winters get!
It never used to bother me.
The Dull, the Dark the Damp – the 3 D’s.
But f**k me this is s**t!
I can see now why my parents moved abroad 20 odd years ago. Sun worshippers!
It makes SUCH A DIFFERENCE to health and happiness.
I’ve suffered more than ever this winter though. I swear I’ve got that seasonal disorder thing er me jiginy.
I’ve felt depressed at large parts over the last 5 months.
I’ve felt like I had gone back a thousand steps to when I entered full time Royal Marines rehabilitation in 2017. That was a dark place.
But here’s the thing.
I’m pushing on. Mentally and physically because the sun will shine!
I’ve looked back at photos from last summer. The BBQs, the day trips, the pub gardens and I want to be in shape.
I want to be strong, look good, feel good, get a tan on!
So I’m putting the work in now, when it’s the hardest. When I can’t be arsed.
I’m doing it, because it’ll get easier in the sunshine.
It’ll pay off.
And next winter, i’m f**king off abroad!
Chat soon.
Coach OO.
