Because maybe I should?

This week I was at the U of W for a high school enrichment program. I know, not the best timing considering how busy I am. But I hardly go to school anymore anyways, so why start now? It was a pretty interesting experience. I took a psychology course about the brain and mind, which is cool becase I've never had the chance to take something like that in high school, and it also helped me figure out more things I'm interested in. Somehow between that and practices I was still super tired so as well as trying to catch up oh homework I had to keep up with new stuff... which didn't really happen. So this week is pretty much going to suck, and it's kind of my fault for turning into a procrastinator. And for just taking on crazy amounts of things I guess. But it might also be partly because I don't get enough iron. I know that sound like a weird and lame excuse, but I'm trying to figure out if there's anything to that. Because this weekend I had two 10hour nights of sleep as well as a nap and I'm still exhausted. And my last few days of practices were awful. I get it that everyone is tired after some hard weeks of training, but I really, really sucked recently.  So I will try to see if I can make some changes.

The good news about my training this week is that I got in three decent swims. I alternated days to give my shoulders enough recovery and I hope for the same next week. Also starting this Tuesday are the duathlons. I'm kind of excited actually. I feel like they are a good chance to get some solid race prep in. I will be writing again after each of them probably so it's a good guess to check back around Wednesdays for the next month. Well there's the update of my week again. Laura told me I should write today. So I did. Now I'm going to get some sleep!

  1. I remember being part of that same university enrichment course YEARS ago. It's a great opportunity. Glad you took it on, even though you really sound busy.

    I hope you figure out why you're so tired. Maybe it's iron. Could it even be mono? That makes you really tired, too. Worth checking it out!
