Skipped Week #11. I should be on #12 now. Only six more weeks to go!
Monday - Ran 5 miles
I've really enjoyed running in the evenings lately. It is light out longer. Everyone in outside. It is calm and peaceful. Rob and I have been staying up until 11 or so. Especially because the kids really aren't settling down until after 8. I'd rather sleep until 7 and run later in the day.
I did my regular 5 mile route to the Sumpter neighborhood and back. Aside from my legs feeling tight in the beginning, I felt great.
Tuesday - Rest Day
Wednesday - Ran 5 miles
I ran on the treadmill at the gym around 8:00 PM. It was a tough run at first. I was really feeling it. When they switched the TV to American Idol, I almost felt the music really helped me. I've still been struggling with fatigue. I have needed to take a short nap (like half hour - forty-five minutes) almost every single afternoon and usually I don't do that every afternoon. I also do know we are staying up later. Most of the winter I was not staying up until 11. And some mornings the kids are up really early--like 6:15 AM. I don't really think it's my eating. I weighed myself and even with all the running I stayed the exact same. If I had a major weight loss, I would be concerned.
Thursday - Rest
I have hardly taken a day off from running and I was so fatigued after a busy morning. I decided to rest again.
Friday - Ran 5 miles
I think the extra rest this week helped because I ran great this morning. I have still felt a little tired, but not nearly as fatigued. I just did my regular five route at 8:00 AM this morning and it went fine.
