This week saw me hit a total wall in regards to the gym. It felt like the last month's worth of gym work outs and early morning runs had suddenly decided to mount on my shoulders, hit me in the back and pull on my feet. By Friday I decided 'No more!' and have given the gym a skip for a couple of days. My blood sugars aren't overly happy about the decision but I just couldn't seem to go on anymore! On average, I was doing half the weight I normally load at the gym, in the same amount of time...sometimes even giving up early and I was barely working out for 40 minutes a day. I was dog gone shameful in there lol. I also seem to have suffered what I can only imagine was a mild form of insomnia all week. I never fell into a deep sleep once, instead having those over active dreams where everything is over emotional, confusing and stressful..aaaaalllllll night, that is except for the million and one times a woke up. I finally crashed and burned last night (8pm to 8am ain't bad!!!) and am hoping for a similar performance tonight. Monday here we come!
On a positive note, I finally finished a media release for distribution to promote Run for Type 1, to be sent out this week. I also signed up to become a volunteer for Diabetes Queensland: I'm determined to put my diabetes to good use!
Crossing my fingers, the rest from the gym has done me good!
