2 weeks of slog

I'm still recovering from a workout last night in which Muha and I carried out a series of exercises prescribed last year by a physiotherapist. These excercises are meant to strengthen leg, ankle, knee and back muscles as well as encourage a more efficient use of oxygen.

Muha has decided to go, but is worried about how he'll fare at sub-zero temperatures.

We're going swimming this evening, then more land training tomorrow night, and hiking around Hulhumale at the weekend. We're certainly short of time, but I reckon we'll be reasonably prepared for the trek if we make use of each of the 18 days we have left before we fly out.

I think the people who are not going to Nepal, especially Shaz and Elvis, should go to the workouts with fruits and drinks for us, and provide moral support.
