After feeling drained emotionally last week, this week I experienced physical symptoms. Headaches every day through Wednesday. Had to take 2 migraine pills in that time. My husband was out of town, so I just immediately took the pills when I felt a migraine coming on. I took no chances and didn’t entertain any thoughts of trying to “gut” it out. Fit in another acupuncture/gwasha appointment on Wednesday. Unfortunately, have taken a few Excedrin Migraine pills each day since.
Sunday – Swam 125m warm ups then 100m, 2 x 50m, 100m, 2 x 50m, 100m. Did 100’s slow, 50’s fast. = 30 minutes
Monday – Biked 30 minutes in cycling room. Swim class. approx. 30 minutes of swimming = 60 minutes
Tuesday – Was going to do Tetra Blitz strength class – didn’t because of online kid camp registration. Did run scheduled for Thursday. Was supposed to do 20 minutes. Did 4 miles. = 40 minutes
Wednesday – Biked 45 minutes in cycling room. Chicago Tri Club (CTC) meeting in the evening, which was really valuable. Read more about the CTC meeting here. = 45 minutes
Thursday – Off. Facilitating all day. I took a bike maintenance class in the evening. That was simultaneously enlightening and discouraging. (Changing that tire was much harder than I expected!) More on that here.
Friday – Off.
Saturday – 90 minutes on bike, including 45-minute class. 10 minute run. 30 minute swim. = 130 minutes
TOTAL = 305 minutes = 5 hours, 5 minutes
- Swim – 90 minutes = 30%
- Bike – 165 minutes = 54%
- Run – 50 minutes = 16%
- Strength – 0 minutes = 0%
Wow, totals are low the last two weeks. I know I’ve been dealing with grief but it still feels low and makes me nervous! Darn taper!
