Monday: I'm so excited that it's getting brighter out every morning!! It gives me hope to think I can start running outside in the AM. Then I remember, that day light savings is next week, and I go back in the dark for the AM. GRRR. My swim was slow and I felt tired this morning, but I got it done. Got home from work in the PM. My Wahoo and I had a talk, if it didn't start listening, I was going to sell it. It was nice to me tonight, and I got in a decent ride. One Mimosa to celebrate my birthday tomorrow, since I have to work and can't have one in the am.
Tuesday!! It's my BIRTHDAY!!!! Woke up and while wishing I didn't have too, I got in my AM run, I was all alone at 5AM in the clubhouse.....sad. But then I got a nice call from the parents, a rare occurrence, on my way home. I chatted for a bit, enlightened them with my "pink floyd" story. And then off to work. I had a wonderful birthday potluck with some yummy tasting birthday cake, then made plans for a birthday dinner on the beach with wine and pizza from my favorite place in town. Jocelyn and Mike and I had a fun time. I couldn't make my traditional snow angels for my birthday, so I compromised with some SAND ANGELS!! We got in some Sparkler Writing, to cap off one more of my 43 List. I managed to get over half of my list completed for the year, I'm pretty happy with that, I plan to just continue this list into my 44 year, I haven't made it up yet, but I've got ideas already. It was a good day. I got lots of wonderful love from friends and family near and far. I didn't get to speak with a few people that I really wanted to, but that is life. It lets you know that some people aren't meant to be in your life forever. Sucks, but it is what it is. I have to trust that it's for the best, even when I don't want to say goodbye. Overall, I had a good day.
Wednesday: Swim was hard this AM, I got it in, but felt really fatigued and tried. I actually felt like my period was starting up a week early. Crazy pain and cramping and fatigue. So, when I got home, While I was super excited to see my BASE BOX on the porch, I was in bed and sleeping most of the night away. So much for taking my ROAR regimen a week before my period.
Thursday. I was still feeling pretty crappy this AM, so I opted out of the AM run. I did get through work, and then went for a PM run out on the coastal trail. Again, my body was not cooperating. It felt like crap. I had my cramping, I had my significant right sided cramping. I was exhausted by the time I got home, so no attempt at making up my bike happening tonight. I was in bed early and hugging my heating pad. Some days, I hate being a women. It's like we are punished for not procreating.
Friday: Nothing to exciting except I got in my swim. I managed to try on some of my clothes from BASE To see how they fit. A few things were too small. I could blame it on my period, but I'm feeling like that isn't the issue. May see if I can swap some pieces out. Overall, I LOVE the race kit!! I'm excited to be representing Base again this year. I'm actually liking the red/black combo. I've been burnt out on it from high school colors and work colors though my younger life. Somehow. I managed to purchase one lone PINK item??? I'm not sure how I did it? But maybe it was because i was so overwhelmed with all the awesome choices and things to pick this year. Oh well. I guess I can switch it out with a blue cap and survive with it? Maybe?
Saturday: I was dreading today. my long bike ride, last weeks ride was a disaster, I could barely get up any energy to get my pace going, or ride. I really focused this time on my nutrition. And it definitely was much better then last week. I got in an extra 10 miles with almost the exact same time. Progress. I 'll take it. I still have work to do. But I'll take it. And it only took a FRUSTRATING 30 MINUTES to get the damm WAHOO to connect.
I spent the afternoon napping. (30 min turned into 4 hours), then headed over to my friends Jocelyn and Mike and had a nice time hanging out, catching crab and cooking it, chilling on the harbor. Doesn't get much better than that!!
Sunday: Woke to darker skies...Boo to Day Light Savings making the AM darker. I got up and walked the pups, needed a bit of a nap, then off for my AM 7 mile run. Seriously? Can it get much better then this for my AM run???
I can feel my Ironman Fatigue kicking in pretty good this week. I need to really just focus on nutrition better. I plan to hop back on my Whole 30 for a week or two to get in a good reset. I've been indulging a bit to much lately in all the good stuff thanks to my birthday. But I can't complain, my birthday week has been awesome!!! On to my next week of training.
