Fragile

Sorry, only water running today, for those not interested in such things, you know who you are, no need to read on ;-)

One of those days when it pays to be meeting someone at the pool because both mind and flesh were very weak today.

5 minutes warm up
3 sets of 8 by 90 second hard with 30 second recoveries
2 minutes easy between sets
5 minute cool down

Pretty unremarkable today, though a little spot of “chasey” in the closing laps livened things up a bit :lol:

Triple Treat
Slight hangover, back to work and that time of the month, Yay, today was always gonna suck wasn’t it!

I was pretty much a useless lump today and right now am just wanting to blob on the couch and maybe have a little cry. Don’t fret, I am not really sad, just those dang hormones.

Not to mention 3 days of absolutely appalling eating, Friday night is usually the designated takeaway night, but I ended up with takeaway on Saturday night and Sunday night, not to mention feeding the slight hangover today. Again, just lets me know that while a few slack days won’t hurt me it is not a lifestyle I want to sustain, I feel like garbage and can’t wait for a decent healthy feed tonight. Right now a big pot of broccoli soup is simmering away, it smells great.

Last week I did all my pool running as well as my normal running sessions, close to 7 hours worth of workouts, no wonder I was shattered by last night. Finally I am getting to the point where I can skip pool sessions, like tomorrow. As much as the pool sessions with Jo have been a laugh both us were pretty happy to say “can’t do it tomorrow, gotta run” :-)

OK, all this is getting in the way of some serious vegging out time, major major cranky pants tonight.
