Janathon day 19: hockey dad!

Written Jan 20, 2014, tagged under post,cold,hockey,janathon,Tring

Today was the second of Mrs H's "yoga days", so any kind of fitness outing was out of the question. However, my 10yo had a hockey tournament in Tring, so we headed out that way for the game. It was a lovely day, but very cold indeed! My 5yo and I trudged round the hockey park for an hour or two, occasionally sitting in the car to thaw out joints. I've made a mental note to wear a lot more clothes and bring a flask of hot drink of some kind.

After the game we headed off for a hot chocolate at a rather nice little coffee house in Tring itself, and had a chat with a cyclist from Edgware who was squeezing in for a cup of tea en route - about as close to proper exercise as I got, overall!

After getting home, it was just the usual ritual of eating, homework, ... you know the story. This being Janathon, though, and even with a persistent ankle problem, I did manage to slip in 40 press-ups.
