Oh geesh I'm tired today. I've been seeing someone recently and its moving along nicely and I've been staying at his place lately. Get ur dirty minds outta the gutter, I just stay with him (ok so there is some making out but thats it perv lol) but I stayed at his house again last night. It seems I've been there on the nights before I have to run and so not a good idea. He was so sweet this morning (and looking oh sooo good) he told me to stay in bed when he left for the hospital and I should have listened to him but I didn't.
I wanted to run my 6 miles before body pump today and then do class. So I got up shortly after he left stopped for the best coffee in the world (dunkin donuts) and then went to the gym. BUT I was only able to do 4 miles by the time class started, however I felt so good running I wanted to finish the run instead of stopping for an hour class then going back after to do 2 more miles. So I skipped class, finished my run then did weights on my own. So what I am getting at is I could have and should have stayed in bed, gotten 2 extra hours of sleep and then I wouldn't feel so terrible right now. But I never listen and now I have a headache and I feel a little nauseous and I'm super tired and unmotivated to do anything that I must and its only 1 in the afternoon.
I'd like to say I've learned something here but I probably didn't. I'm already over working myself I haven't taken a day off from exercise in 10 days now and still have 3 more days until I have ONE day off. I know all of this is NOT good for me but I planned my training around my RPM classes. I teach on Monday, Wednesday and Friday I had to do my long run on a day I don't teach so that was Thursday. So with my training schedule paired with my RPM schedule on the day's I have off from running I have to teach RPM so my only day off completely is on Saturdays. I didn't have last Saturday off however because I subbed a class. Dumb. Very Dumb. Once this gets to be too much I think I'm going to give up my Friday RPM class, temporarily of course. This is something I don't want to do (cuz I just got a new car and a car payment) but I know I'm going to have to do it soon. BOO!
On the flip side I feel great when I am running, I did 6 miles on the dreaded treadmill (it was thunder storming, torrential down pouring for a bit and the featured performance was by a lightening show that would have made pink floyd jealous). I hate the treadmill. But I did very well, wasn't tired and physically felt like 6 miles was nothing. So I'm totally getting this endurance thing down already. I lost 1.6lbs at my weigh in this past Saturday and I'm hoping on a loss this week too. I'm like 2lbs away from officially hitting the 30lbs lost and I'm dying to get there so I can reward myself with a new belly ring. I've been trying to hit this mark for a while, I kinda slacked the past 6 weeks, however it was intentional so that I could be crazy serious now...which obviously I am.
Happy running...
