Project Three: Body
Project Three: Body is my plan to have my fitness up to a high level, my flexibility, balance and strength
at their peak and my body the best it can be by the end of the year.
24th Feb 05: See below for today's progress on the 28 day challenge. Been very busy but still trying to fit
it all in. It feels like things are working for me.

Short term goals:
By my Japan trip (14th March):
- I want to be able to run my entire circuit without wanting to walk, feeling asthmatic or tired.
- To have a larger gap between my thighs.
- For my left leg to come closer than 90d in the hamstring stretches. (Both legs 75-60?)
- Nose nearly to knees when I reach towards toes in sitting position. To be able to grip inner sides of feet in
stretch.
- Flatter lower abdominals and narrower obliques.
By my Birthday (26th April):
- Running 3 times a week, with/without Finn.
- Leaner thighs: pilates/ballet at least twice a week concentrating on these.
- Both legs 60d in hamstring stretches.
- Fingers flat to floor when bending.
- Flatter lower abdominals, narrower obliques (I just know I'll still be doing this ;).
- Back work - 90d arabesques.
By Tim's Birthday (6th June):
- Cycling Sundays.
- Continuing thigh work, pulling back a little.
- Fortnightly swim?
- Legs 45d in hamstring stretches - keeping flexibility equal.
- Closer to front splits.
- Nose to knees in reach to toes.
- Palms flat on floor when bending.
- Much better ballet turnout.
- GREAT ABS
