sleepy day

Today I had a headache. I decided to bag the run today and sleep for a few extra minutes. I have mixed feelings about this. I don't know if I should feel guilty for not getting up and going. I also don't know if going for the run might have helped me to clear my mind and perhaps helped to ease the headache. I don't really know because I didn't go. My head still hurts (though not as badly as earlier) and I feel a little sleepy. I did feel good about running on Sunday, a day when I normally do not run. I am starting to feel very cooped up in the house and perhaps the headaches have something to do with it (so not taking my 30 minutes in the fresh air may have a far more detrimental effect than I realized at the time).

I am starting to grow weary of my schedule. I need a few more minutes of quiet alone time ;)

back again

To all my loyal readers, I apologize for my sad lack of posts.

I went out yesterday and today in my re-ignited effort to become a triathlete. Friday I went on a "spring run" with some people who utterly spanked me and I was feeling very under trained. No more. I am slowly building up. My knees have been a little achy lately so I'm trying hard not to overdo it. Today my run/walk was: walk the short sides and run the long sides of the rectangular block that I train around. I figure I am running about 3/4 of a mile and walking about 1/2 mile. I could be slightly off but that is probably close. I'm trying to work up to the mile by next Monday. That is the goal. I want to run the whole distance then.
