This morning at work a co-worker asked me why I have been so quiet this week. I answered that I was tired. She looked at me and said that everyone is tired. I thought I needed to explain myself:
I have been really busy these last couple of weeks. For the past three weekends in a row, I have run a race. The first was a half marathon, the second a 5K and the third a 10K. After my half marathon, I have continued to run four to five times a week. Last Saturday, I covered the cross country state finals at Michigan International Speedway. That included running in and out of a van going from point A, B and C. After getting photos of the local runners, I ran from the finish line to the media vans that were located behind pit row. About two hours later I was an alter server at church. This week I have driven out of the county twice to cover district volleyball games. I will be leaving the county again tomorrow night for a district football game. The drive times to each place have been an hour as will tomorrow's drive.
After I explained to the co-worker why I was tired, she said that listening to me just made her tired.
I try to take naps every afternoon. I go to bed early and rise every early (4 a.m.). But it seems like I'm always tired. I was supposed to run today, but I decided to take a day off. My treadmill will still be in the same place tomorrow. All I can say is I'm looking forward to the weekend. Much needed rest.
