So what's this all about then?

For those of you who have seen my other (sadly neglected) blog and indeed for a lot of the people that I know through work and socially I'm generally known as "that mad bugger who ran 100k's". So what's this new blog about? And what the heck is a WOD?

To cut a long story short, as I have a tendency to make a long story longer if I'm not careful, I've spent most of this year transforming myself from the "ultra endurance guy" (a self given title that never really caught on, much to my disappointment ...) to something resembling more all round fitness. And that, essentially is what this blog is about - my efforts in achieving a high level of functional fitness.

Key to these efforts is the WOD or Workout of the Day. These are a set of ever changing high intensity workouts designed to build functional fitness. As the blog goes on I intend to detail these WOD's plus the other things I do to supplement them. In addition there will be the odd rambling monologue detailing the reasons why I'm doing what I'm doing, what I hope to gain and the science behind it.
