Wednesday, Week 11

Yesterday was a good day. Unfortunately, the quality/amount of sleep that I've been getting hasn't been all that good lately. Last night I went to bed around 10:30, but I felt a bad vibe in the room which made it difficult to get to sleep. I got up and dragged my husband to bed around 11pm, and then I was able to sleep. At 5:10am, his series of alarms started going off. He has 3 different alarms, so it was 3 different beeps between 5:10 and 5:15am. This series continued until about 6am when I was finally sick of it and told him to turn them all off, at which time he did and he got up. I finally got back to sleep maybe 15 minutes after that, but then around 6:30am it was time for me to get up if I wanted to carpool with him to work. So, all in all, I got about 6 hours of uninterrupted sleep and then maybe 15 minutes more. Needless to say, it's been an irritable morning. Lots of exercise plus poor sleep is a really horrible combination. I think that all the exercise might be making me a lighter sleeper. In the past, I've been able to sleep right through his alarms. So, something has changed. But, even last weekend with no alarms, I was waking up at 4:10am. I'm going to need to figure something out. I doubt I've gotten a full 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep in over a week now.

So, this morning I'm feeling relatively sore and sluggish. I think I'm going to make today's run an easy one - 2 miles instead of the 3 that I've been doing. I want to be at my best for tomorrow's trapeze class.

Update - I wound up doing 2.5mi. See below.
