Wednesday - 6th October - 24 days to go

Kinda got out of bed on the wrong side today. It was 1 degree at 6am. This really put me off going for a ride or run or anything. So I slept some more.

At 7am it was only 6 degrees. So I did dishes instead of exercising and then freaked out because I suddenly remembered that I didn't do a few things at work. I ran into work, threw my weight around and really didn't do a good job of being a nice person, all because I was feeling really stressed out about not doing my exercise and not being able to do my job properly... *sigh*

And then I went for a quick horse back ride. I didn't let TK walk, we trotted and cantered, and I tried really hard to get him to sweat in a short time, but he's actually quite fit! But still got him working well.

Then I headed to the pool and swam 700 meters. I was actually really pleased with this! It did take about 30 minutes, so, agreed, not stellar, but as I got warmed up and into the rhythm I started to really enjoy the swim. I was doing 50 metres in about 1 minute 10 seconds. If I can maintain that, I'd be looking at about 1km in 25 minutes - give or take, I'm not doing the math now, too tired!

Did Body Balance at the end of the day. Do love that class! :)

Time for bed! I'm wrecked!

  1. I love the way you're able to be self-critical about your bad days at work. That makes you a great co-worker. :-)

  2. Well, on one hand I do take pride in being able to admit when I make a mistake, act like a tard, or generally just muck up. On the other hand, if I could just be a little more level-headed and not take my troubles with me to work, I'd probably be a lot easier to work with! I've been pottering away at a strengths vs weaknesses posts and I think this will be a definite point for discussion.
