Is it possible to enjoy NOT running?
That is what I almost titled this blog post, but that's doesn't encompass everything that I want to talk about.
Some of you may have noticed that I've been rather quiet the last few weeks and some might even have been wondering why.
Well, a big part of it I can't talk about now, but I will soon. It might sound cague, but I just haven't felt well and running has just made me feel worse lately. Some of it is the pressure of working out, that I HAVE to get it done or I'm somehow a terrible person (my anxiety rearing it's ugly head). A larger part is that I'm just burnout and need to work on finding my enjoyment in it again.
I do find the time to do some exercises like planks, squats, tricep dips and pushups but none of it at the level I had been doing them before.
What have I been doing if I'm not running? Sleeping for one! Or trying to as I suffer from Adrenal Fatigue. Life in general has kept me pretty busy especially with the holidays upon us.
Recently, we took our 4 year old daughter to The Nutcracker. She loves dance class so we thought she get a kick out of it. To our surprise, she seemed more interested in the orchestra!
I also used my extra downtime to start and FINISH my Christmas shopping. Since my daughter wanted a bike, I headed to Wal-Mart to find a good deal. I counted the fact that I had to push the bike, 40 pounds of kitty litter, 13 pounds of cat food and various other supplies through the store all while blissfully child and husband free.
