Yesterday I began my first Tour of Duty through the 52DC.   Overall, I started the day motivated and was able to keep my eating habits on track; if there’s one thing I know about myself, it’s that if I can keep my eating habits on track, everything else is gravy, piece of cake,…Are there any sayings that would fit here that don’t revolve around sodium or sugar laden foods?

I didn’t get my workouts in that I had hoped for, mainly because I was still tired from Tuesday where I had a 3 mile run, a 1 hour session with a trainer (which involved weights and another 2.5 miles of running) and a hockey game.  Yesterday I had hoped to go for a run after work, but I got stuck at work for 2 hours longer than I had hoped and lost all interest in running for the day.

After getting home and spending most of the evening on the couch resting up my legs, I decided that I would go for a run before work today.  Well, as I am on-call at my place of employment, I had a fun evening of fixing problems until about 4:30 am, then got to sleep around 5:00 am, got paged again at 6:30 am, got back to sleep shortly after 7:00 am and got paged yet again at 8:30 am (2 on-call days down, 12 to go).  So today isn’t panning out as well as I had hoped either.

I did manage to get out for a run around 9:30 this morning and it was a surprisingly good workout considering the lack of sleep.

Hopefully sometime soon I can get a workout in after a good rest…
