Tuesday: RUN only 1.5 mile of about 2.5 miles in lazy day
The Weds run was my start to rebuilding my midweek b-2-b-2-b schedule. Next week 1-2 miles, if it feels good.
Thursday was a stressful run for LA -- he wore headphones and couldn't hear half of what I said so I had fun with it, haha, he'll never know. He has the MCAT on Saturday! This was a late afternoon TGP loop, drove there and took our time. He ran a faster pace than I did, but he walked more so we found our balance that way.
Saturday he was gone and I was on my own for my last June goal: run/walk my TGP 10K loop, and I did it!! It was harder than it should have been, I had to walk more than I expected and my pace and heart race showed some struggle. How mental was the struggle? Was it mostly mental? I felt OK after the run, it didn't wipe me out, so was it really that hard?
After all that last week (RUN of 13.3 miles and COMMUTE 32.2) I'm feeling good but the pelvic "butt crease" area is hurting on the right side, and I don't know if it's running or biking (the seat touches this area). I don't know if it's the bone or soft tissues. I don't know if it's injury or tightness or adaptation to activity. Keep an eye on it!
I'm eager to do more strength training, so I've found multiple apps and programs to try. Not sure which one will stick yet, I'm looking for a long term one like 12 weeks with a progression.
My "whole30" is rolling, I've been off dairy (except a little butter) since the New Moon on the 21st (so only 9 days) but no cheese, yogurt, cottage cheese is different! Do I feel better? I hope so. Also no sugars, and I'm not buying anymore water with fake sugars like the tea powder and sparking waters. Go a month, and see how it feels.
I emailed Dr McM this morning about symptoms that didn't abate with concerted lifestyle changes the past 6 months. I hate to blame my thyroid and/or hormones on this, especially after I made that 3 year graph of changes and and habits, but it's getting frustrated to be so tired all the time. And now the added symptoms, if I get tested I can ignore that excuse and get back to doing HIIT to help myself out? I'm just sick of feeling sick. See what comes of this message
