Wimbledon, then the World Cup and now we are all engrossed in the Commonwealth Games being held in Glasgow.\u00a0 This has inspired many people to go out and try something new for themselves or to get back into shape.\u00a0 Who couldn\u2019t be inspired by Steven Way, the 40 year old English Marathon runner who achieved a personal best and finished in a respectable 10th place.\u00a0 Only 7 years ago he was an overweight couch potato who ate, drank and smoked too much.\u00a0 Even if we do want to be like him, it is still too easy to make excuses and put it off a bit longer.\u00a0 We have all heard someone say things like, \u201cI would, but I get home from work too late\u201d or \u201cIt\u2019s raining outside, I will run tomorrow night\u201d, or \u201cI don\u2019t want anyone to see me running\u201d.<br \/><span><\/span><br \/><span><\/span>  Some people have overcome the bad weather, or their hate of busy gyms by creating their own specialised gym in their garage.\u00a0\u00a0 For some, it\u2019s as simple as clearing a space and installing a quick release bike trainer, connecting your bike and training can begin.\u00a0 For others, fitness is a way of life and they fully convert their garage.\u00a0 Here is an example of what you can do with a little imagination and a bit more money.<br \/><span><\/span><br \/><span><\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"wsite-image
