why do i do that to myself?
the last 36 hours i have felt awful.
so, basically, monday morning i ran 4 miles and swam for 30 minutes.
probably the most intense exercise i've done since having sawyer (well, maybe the 11 miles was close...)
it was the first time i had swam (swum? i don't know how to do the past tense of swim).
i also cut out sugar.
by late afternoon on monday i was DYING.
my muscles were screaming "i'm exhausted!" and my body was screaming "i want sugar!"
ok. i was kind of expecting that.
went to bed.
and continued to feel the same way ALL DAY yesterday.
seriously.
it was awful.
i couldn't accomplish ANYTHING.
kind of felt like the flu - where everything hurts but nothing specific.
i didn't run the last 2 mornings (because it was raining...but i'm not sure i would have been able to if i didn't have an excuse).
i am JUST now feeling a bit better.
i have a little energy and can think past this moment.
i plan on running again tomorrow.
and swimming again on friday.
i hope the detoxing from sugar and adjusting to swimming effects don't last too much longer!
and i need to NOT get in such bad habits again so that i don't have to go through this!
i don't have the time for this!
(sorry, that wasn't the most exciting post.)

actually I thought it was riveting!
I couldn't have written that better myself - I have even been using those same terms (flu, detox, etc...)
I feel good but really bad all at the same time!
wow! I'm coming to your house for boot camp! I need to detox from sugar as well. Maybe I can feed off of your will power! By the way I actually came out this morning hoping to see your smiling face but everyone was a no show! see you in the morning.
You continue to amaze me...how you just set your mind to do something and you then you do it. I need to learn from you.
