For the last three mornings I have gone across to Central Park to do some exercise and to use the Monkey bars that they have there.

I’ve wanted to get back into a bit of exercise after what felt like a very fat winter in the UK. A week ago it felt like winter had returned but the last few days and in particular this morning, the sun has come out and it’s very pleasant. The sky is blue and there are very few clouds.

I go to the monkey bars and then do a quick circuit of the paths and then return to the bars once more. I’ll do three laps and by that time I’m unable to do another chin up and so I’ll come back to the flat for a shower. However I think I’m going to have to get up a bit earlier if it continues to warm up so quickly.
