OK, so after I got done blogging yesterday, I went for a 3.5 mile run. It felt awesome! I guess I wasn't as out of shape after two or three weeks than I thought. That was a huge relief. The weather was cooler and I felt like I was pretty fast. I don't know my time, because my iPod is broken and I didn't bring my watch with me, but I felt like I was flying!
One strange thing though was when I got home I was so freaking thirsty! I must have drank a gallon of water. I felt like I couldn't quench my thirst at all.
Last night I went to bed early, about 10:00 and fell right asleep. When I woke up this morning, I felt refreshed and ready to face work. Made myself a nice breakfast sandwich with Canadian bacon, an omelet made with one whole egg and one egg white, and a cup of coffee.
Aside from the fact that I didn't eat lunch until almost 2 today (stupid patient transfer) I still felt awesome! In fact, after dinner settled I went out and did some interval training. Pretty much I lapped the station and then walked the block down to the adjacent neighborhood, then sprinted back to the station. I did this 6 times, which took me about half an hour. Then I came in and did 15 minutes of yoga stretching.
I feel great that I was able to fit in a work out at work. Usually, I am too busy (or is it too lazy) to get in a work out on the clock, but as I stated yesterday, I am grounding myself and that means working out at work.
I also, got back in touch with Aaron and Mandi and Gator Crossfit and promised them (and maybe myself) that I would make it in at least once a week. Their workouts are so awesome and I love the way they make me push myself.
Tomorrow's plan is to run in the a.m. before I go to my overtime assignment and then hit the gym for some weights when I get off and before I go home to sleep.
I will keep you posted.
Feeling the burn,
K.
