Last week ended up being a not so productive week for me from a workout perspective. I started the week off really strong with a run and two weight workouts in the first three days, but then didn't do any formal training the rest of the week. I felt sick after getting home from work on Friday and then was in bed half of the day Saturday. I was pretty busy the rest of the day Saturday and not really capable of a serious workout anyway. On Sunday, I had planned to go for a run, but I just wasn't feeling up to it. I didn't eat or drink much on Friday or Saturday so I was still somewhat weak and dehydrated. The worst part is that I missed my 5K race on Saturday. I could have probably forced myself to go and run it, but it would have been a token effort, and it may have made me feel worse. I was running a fever on Friday night and ached all over in addition to feeling queasy and having a headache. Overall, I was very disappointed with my training week and upset that I didn't run my race, but it is only one week in the grand scheme of life so I just need to push onward.
This week also started off in an unavailing manner with Monday being the holiday and thus a very busy day. We had a garage sale and a cookout so there was a lot going on throughout the day. I managed to get back on track yesterday with a 4-miler after getting home at around 8:15pm. It was kind of a late night for me as I had to get up at 4:30am this morning, but I really felt that I needed to get out and run to break up six consecutive non-running days. Tonight I will hit the gym for a weight workout and a walk on the treadmill. I am committed to making this week a good week of training.
