Sooooooooooo Very Tired

Me, el Jefe, Dad & Mom Dein

So...we had a nice, but short, visit with Jeff's parents this weekend. Drove 2.5 hours Friday night, spent most of Saturday toodling around Savannah and visiting, turned back around for 2.5 hours on Sunday morning. So not a lot of rest and relaxation. My special friend decided to "visit" early Saturday morning, so that added to my general malaise and sense of the "blahs".

I'm pretty sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. I'm gonna bite the bullet and go see a doc this week. If it's just the vertigo maybe they can prescribe something that will help me get back on my feet faster than my present regimen. If it's something else, at least I'll know and be able to deal with it.

I hate feeling blah, feeling tired after workouts that used to be a breeze, or missing workouts because I just can't imagine having the energy to get of the couch, let alone get in a workout. So this week I'm gonna take it easy, but I'm going to work out daily (unless the doctor says otherwise). Today a nice, light, conversation paced ride with Debbie, who I haven't managed to see in more than a month. Tomorrow a fun run...just for me. A trail run where I can enjoy spring and get back some of that "lovin' feeling" that exercise usually brings. And weights. I've missed them...and maybe they've missed me!

I'll make the call on Yargo today or tomorrow. I can't do it and take three weeks off afterward. Baker's Dozen is a much easier trail and I'm still not feeling myself (not sure if it's slow, slow, slow recovery or something else) two weeks later. I just want to get the old me back again...steady and dependable throughout a workout or event. I want to turn my eyes toward my first triathlon without worries and self-doubt.

Wish me luck at the doc! I'll let interested parties know once I get an appointment and a "verdict".
