Sleep does a body good

I can’t tell how much difference a good night’s sleep has made in today’s outlook. I’ve been pretty grumpy these past couple weeks. I’m now blaming it on lack of sleep. I had a solid night’s rest for the first time in weeks.

Skimping on sleep is not good. We all know this golden rule. Yet we all do it. We can blame it on a variety of things like work or home life. And we all still do it. Usually I recognize when I am skimping an I take action right away. This time I let it get too far before I realized I was not sleeping well. No more I am taking back my pillow time.

I ate out way too much this week too. I stop now. No more restaurant food. I’m taking back my green meals.

I had a snowy run this afternoon. Winter has returned. I ignored the snowfall and the deep snow on the pavement and enjoyed my 12k run. I needed it. Next week this time I will be finished my first race of 2012. I can’t wait to see my old pals.
I’m also happy to finish my Learn to Run Clinic. Don’t get me wrong, I quite enjoy my group. The clinic has taken way too much of my free time. I really liked the teaching aspect of it. I could do without all the behind the scenes drama and the extra work. No more. I’m taking back my sanity (or what I have of it).
