Show notes Have you considered your business exit strategy? Many entrepreneurs pour their passion into launching and growing their startups without planning for the eventual exit. As serial entrepreneur Kieron James shares, incorporating exit planning from day one sets up your business for success when the right time comes to
Running
Bad night’s sleep so my plan to run 8 mile hills was abandoned in favour of a less time-consuming 5k, so I could be back for an 8am breakfast. I did feel tired this morning, but at least got it done - even if “it” was a different it.
Running
A late night airport pickup meant running on less than five hours sleep - and I like my sleep! But it wasn’t as bad as I feared it might be. A warm one though with little breeze. The photo is of one of my favourite trees on this route
Running
Tired legs today - feeling yesterday’s hills. A bit low on energy all round. Took two minutes to enjoy the view and eat a Nakd bar from the helipad in the marina. It‘s a lovely spot which I often have all to myself. Spotted three paddle boarders heading
Hot, hilly, humid. But wonderful! Beautiful start to the day and feeling on top of the world - literally, with today’s elevation gain. This is another of my favourite, albeit challenging, routes. Some of the climbs, particularly when it starts to get warm, are a little intimidating. I did
Running
I wanted to pick up the pace a little in the middle of this run, but I still find that I don’t differentiate enough between the easy and harder sections, running with a similar effort throughout (maybe marginally quicker and slower). I think once a week, I’ll try
Running
Felt ready to try a gentle half after fasting. The first time I tried a longer distance without fuelling for 16 hours, I couldn’t do it. I just felt like I reached an empty tank at about seven miles. Today was fine though. Took it easy, enjoyed the sunshine
Running
Plenty of elevation but the clouds kept it cooler this morning. We are forecast a sunny afternoon and low 30s this week so I’ll be running early and aiming to do yoga before lunch while the mat is still in the shade. Ate gluten yesterday and felt like I
Running
I’m not sure if it’s because I’m now a month into the intermittent fasting, but the two most recent morning runs have felt OK. Sixteen hours without fuel still feels like a long time since fuelling but today my heart rate was lower and although this route
Running
Trying not to run before fuelling, but couldn’t avoid it today. I was keen to head out before the sun got up and needed to be home in time for breakfast, so a short, hilly run fit the bill. Energy levels were not bad, but it felt a little
Running
Very enjoyable run after a chilled weekend. Spent most of it basking in the Spanish sun. A spot of yoga before breakfast and a nice seven miler to round out June. Target for July - five to six half primary yoga practices each week and four runs (Tue, Thu, Sat,
Running
Been running but not blogging. Settling into the new intermittent fasting regime and it feels like my metabolism has now figured out when I’m eating. Sleeping better, not feeling tired and getting used to running at the other end of the day!
Running
Warm. Still 31 degrees according to Carrot weather, though Strava has it at 28. Felt warm and I am definitely still not acclimatised or completely used to the new fasting regime. Feeling lighter and stronger but just hit a “run out of fuel” wall. This evening it was at seven
Running
That’s confirmed. I’d rather have the heat and the hills than run after sixteen hours fasting. Loving the intermittent fasting (two weeks in) and I’m sleeping so much better, but running first thing in the morning when you haven’t eaten since 2pm the previous day is
Running
Completely depleted after the evening commute run and no fuel since 1:30pm yesterday. The intermittent fasting is definitely helping me to sleep better but two runs in no food is a bit stupid. I had planned to get up at six, have breakfast and run at 8:30. it
Running
Run home from the office. Very busy by Farringdon and along The Strand. Dodging commuters for much of the run. Felt stronger than the stats indicate. Not sure if that’s good or bad!
