Training Journal

So,
as of last week I have been documenting everything that I have done to train everyday, and I've decided that at the end of each week I will post it onto my blog. That way I will be able to receive comment on whether or not my training looks sufficient of whether I need to step it up a bit :-). This is also a place for me to look back to in case something happens to my journal.
