Workout: NOTHING.
Today, I woke up at 6:30am. Emmalyn woke up at 6:30am. For a baby who normally sleeps 'til 8:30-9ish, this was shocking. I stayed up until 12:45am studying for finals, and today just didn't start well at all. I had a charming, spunky ball of babyness bursting with joy while I was just groggy, grumpy, and energy-less. No coffee. No tea. Nothing to revive my zombie status. It was rough. Once she napped, I did what any sleep-deprived college student would do...FORCED MY EYE BALLS OPEN AND STUDIED FOR FINALS AGAIN. Awesome. Last week of summer classes...last stupid week.
Once upon a time, I did a facebook challenge to see how many people would "like" my status and therefore commit me to running a whole mile for each "like." I reached 100 by midnight, which was my unannounced cut-off time. 100. I have 100 miles to run in only 28 days. Wanna know how I started day 1 of 28? Oh, I laced up my running shoes alright. I laced them babies up and went straight to class...oh, and stopped for a coffee on campus. Revived.
| it's a start, right? |
Triggers. Yep, I realized I have 3 triggers for poor eating/no exercise. One - lack of sleep. Two- stress. Three- my period. I'm currently handling all three. Wahh. Watch out for yours...now that I have identified them, I'll be better prepared. Let's just hope day 2 of the challenge is more productive...

You're allowed 3 triggers...most woman have more! I think that's why I just now stopped breast feeding...I HATE, HATE, HATE my period. I remember those all-nighters (without a baby), I couldn't imagine it with. Get some sleep, then lace up your shoes, and you'll be ready to run anywhere! Good luck (now I kind of feel bad for liking your status)...I'll go back and unlike it!
