The days are definitely getting shorter. And I mean that figuratively as well as literally! I feel like there's never time for anything. Granted,when I lived in Seattle my commute was 15 minutes. 20 on a super rare day when traffic was terrible. Now, it's 30 minutes. At least. And the grocery stores are further, and it takes forever to get anywhere. Plan and try as I might, it takes forever to get anything done. Plus, I think I'm getting lazier. I blame this partly that I now live in a 3 story house. So, once I'm upstairs if I've left something on the 2nd floor, it's not being retrieved until the next time I'm down there. I mean- if I remember.
But, here I am trying to start training for another Ironman, and looking at a half marathon in two weeks. And I am TIRED!! I slept well Saturday enough night, ran 9 miles Sunday early-afternoon and afterwards all I wanted to do was sleep some more!!! I allowed myself a 30 minute nap before I dragged myself to Costco all in shambles to buy large quantities of this that I have to drag out of my trunk (the perishables did make it inside).
Training. Eating. Working. Sleeping. Having a life. How am I a newbie at all of these things at once again?? I'm so fortunate to be gathering people in my life who understand and appreciate how important my hobbies are to me.
