My body is wasted!!! So much for tapering...
I woke up at 5:00 to do intervals on the treadmill at the gym, but I was literally struggling just to finish a one mile warm-up. It's not so much that my muscles are fatigued, just that the rest of me is exhausted! I've actually been falling asleep while teaching music lessons - very bad. I probably should have stayed in bed, but...
Anyway, I did a couple of high intensity intervals, but not the full workout. All together, I ended up with 2.7 miles in 25:12. Then I headed over to bootcamp training, where I was supposed to mostly watch, but they put peppy music on, and the next thing I knew I was doing plyometrics. Ben would shoot me! I'm seriously going to have to start tapering. But first, I need to get a swim in.....
LATER....
Fighting against much negative inner dialogue, I finally made it to the pool this morning and forced myself to swim. I figured I would have to wash my hair anyway, so I might as well get in the water. I told myself I would do 20 lengths, and then...whatever. I ended up doing 60 lengths. It was a bit short of the 45 minutes I was supposed to do, (actually a LOT!) but I am happy about it anyway. Yay! |
