overall lately, i feel i've been in a bit of a gloomier than normal. i'm not sure what to make of it. work has been busier than normal, i'm starting to slack on my training, and i'm not as excited about much in general. this could be attributed to a few or combination of factors. my lack of sleep will catch up to me by midweek and before you know it, i have to do a long ass run.
this past weekend, i went on vacation with some friends. i was able to sneak in a 5mi and 3mi run. with the crowd i was with, that's actually quite impressive....especially considering how much i ate and drank. more surprisingly, i only gained maybe 1 lb over the whole trip. this is GOOD NEWS.
what i came back to at work is a whole other story. problems after problems just kept popping up and still haven't been resolved by the end of the day. i'm here now just hoping that tomorrow will be better. i have a 10mi run this weekend (since i didn't do it last wknd). i also have weddings to attend to over the next 3 wks. this means plenty of drinking, late nights, and probably money spent. great....just what i needed.
externally, i probably seem normal. internally, i just don't feel like my normal excited-self. like i'm just going through motions without much to look forward to.
i hope this feeling passes soon, cuz i hate to think that it would affect my training. running without seeing the benefit or reward can wreak mental havoc!
