Overdid it.

Why do I not listen to my body?  On Wednesday, I was already feeling worn out from working out that morning.  Oh, did I mention that?  You know that total body rush super-exercisers talk about?  The one that makes them feel crappy if they miss a run?  I don't have that.  Nope. If I work out, I'm exhausted.  All day.  And most of the next day.

Well, instead of taking a break and alternating days, as a normal person would, I decided I was going to work again yesterday.  I did.  Even though I'd had a long work week, was already exhausted, and felt like poo.  I thought, Surely I'll feel better after I work out.  Nope.  I felt like crap.  Super crap.

So yesterday I took the day off and recuperated.  I slept and read and took lots of warm baths.  I am not working out today, since I already feel creaky and my back hurts, but I'll get some exercise tomorrow.  Gabe is down in Ardmore this weekend, and I was thinking if the weather cooperates, it might be a fun time to go run around and eat a picnic lunch at Regional Park.  Plenty of walking and scrambling on playground equipment to be had there!
