My regular subscribers will have noticed a 2 or more week absence of any postings on my channel. Just a whole load of personal issues caused me to sink into a slightly "depressed" state of mind and I just could not find enthusiasm to create and edit any video material. Thanks to the support of a couple of friends here on YT I have managed to get to a more positive state of mind. I have quite a bit of material gathered now and will be posting some more video shortly. One of the positive things I have done is to embark on a lifestyle change including a better diet and fitness routine. My weight has slowly crept up and I am probably about 20lbs over a healthy weight. To focus my attention on this issue I have started a personal blog at www.myroadtofitness.jimdo.com. Here I will post evrything to do with diet and exercise, and everything I discover about the facts and myths of dieting. I have set a goal of 7lbs in 6 weeks which should be achievable. After this time I will be climbing Ben Nevis in Scotland (1,344 metres (4,409 ft) and then walking/backpacking along the West Highland Way from North to South. This is 95 miles with much steeper hill profiles than going the conventional south to north route. I have started to do long walks on the local moorland which is very close to my home and I have gathered lots of video and images of the fantastic scenery that is surrounding us here on the West Penine Moors and will be creating video walks of these excursions.
