Enough Already

I really am sick of the snow and cold, we had 70 on Sunday, 60 on Monday and today we have 30 with snow. My energy level and mood is just all over the place with the constant sudden change in weather. I really don't mind the snow/cold, I am in Ohio after all, but the warm/cold routine is just a bit much, especially when we swing to 70 with blue sunny skies.

I woke up as usual but decided to stay in bed, just didn't want to get up, finally got up and instead of working out decided to clean the kitchen but then ended up going to the basement and doing S90 Shoulders and Arms that is on the schedule. No run or bike today and probably won't swim till the weekend.

Decided to take a rest day yesterday, was fine to run but noticed some tell tale signs of over training especially not being able to sleep. I went through my training log which I moved to Training Peak with the recent crash of Buckeye outdoors I felt I need another backup plan, so I spend the weekend recreating my log in TP.

Was tired this morning, since once I finally fell back asleep last night after talking to work, my sister in law was nice enough to wake me back up at 11:30pm to share the Ben Ladin new, slept in and move the workout to after work.

After dinner, waited 1 hour then hit the treadmill for 200 repeat, wasn't sure I was going to be able to do this since I really hate evening workout, not pretty but got it done did not hit my pace but there is always next time.
