Sometimes I have to adjust my training plans to match reality. I had hoped to bike or run today, but instead I napped without intending to. I’m not sure why I couldn’t sleep well last night, but I felt so wasted today that the first chance I had to sit down, about 4:00, I fell asleep right away and didn’t budge for over an hour. The letters I had planned to open and read were scattered on the floor beside my chair. Dried drool covered my chin. Not a pretty sight. But the nap got the job done.
It was so hard to wake up that I almost cancelled my evening appointments, but I’m glad I didn’t. I felt better after I got moving, and I always enjoy seeing my clients improve in strength, balance, aerobics, and general health. Besides, I sneak in a little mini-workout for myself while I’m demonstrating the exercises for them. It’s all good. Hope I sleep well tonight so I can train hard tomorrow. I wonder if I’ll make it all the way through my practice aquathlon?
Training log: Nothing but a few core exercises and senior exercise class.
Motivation log: I was strongly motivated to take care of myself by embracing the nap. I didn’t beat myself up for sleeping instead of training.
