Cto5k W9D1




So last night i couldn't sleep, and was up late trying to work on a paper for school. i mean i was up really late, like until 4am. i eventually decided to sleep in and forget school for the day, i've been in a weird head zone over the past week. Anyway, i slept until around 11am, had yogurt and frozen fruit and grilled cheese for lunch, and ran about 2.8 miles. On the way out i felt great, pushed myself all the way up that hill for the first time, and then promptly grew bored on the way back down said hill. i paused in the usual places (i.e. the catttleguards), and paused at the top of that hill, too. i think i didn't have enough energy to really focus on my form for the last half of the run, i didn't feel tired or anything, just unmotivated. The second time at the cattleguard i was the slightest bit dizzy, and i had to force myself to finish the end of the run, again not because i felt too tired, but because i had to concentrate just to keep moving. i should have eaten more this morning.

Anyways, i'm considering running in a 5k in May and starting to work towards a triathlon in June... which means i need to start training this week. i should be fine as far as the running, it's the swimming and bicycling that i need to focus on mostly. So tomorrow i might just be going for a bike ride... i'm not sure yet. Unfortunately, my left ear bud went out today; i've been considering buying an mp3 player designed for running with (and maybe even swimming with).

Right now i think i'll eat again and then maybe do some yoga.
