“Monday’s and Tuesday’s workouts follow the same cycle of stretching and retching, but today’s session is, to use a technical exercise term, a bugger. Sam starts me off with a light jog along the promenade, past the ruined West Pier, and then along towards the Palace Pier, picking our way through the cans, bottles, chip wrappers, and occasional piles of sick from the night before. It’s a cold, blustery morning, the overnight rain has frozen in puddles on the pavement, and there’s half the usual ...morning crowd of joggers around.
    As we pass the donut stand at the end of the Palace Pier, I start to make the loop that takes us back up onto the promenade and towards the gym, but Sam keeps on going, and I have to turn round and sprint to catch her up.
    ‘What?’ I pant. ‘Where?’ Whole sentences still being beyond me this early in my training programme.
    Sam grins across at me, still hardly breathing compared to my fish out of water impression.MoreLess Read More Read Less
