It's funny now that I have completed my 21 days of consecutive workouts how I am still heading to the gym after work. It has now gotten to be the norm for me to do that. I will shut down my laptop, stow it in the car and drive the short ride to the gym. I am no longer sore or tired or pressured and I am definitely not feeling lazy. I did happen to take today off and it certainly felt a little odd not to be following what has become my regular routine. But it was needed and part of re-figuring out this entire way of doing this is to find the balance. I could have gone but I needed to stop this one day to get refreshed so I can go on to the next. It was a matter of keeping alert to my own signs and warnings and knowing I could work out today but fizzle out later when I will need the extra get up and go. I opted for the rest day today. I plan on going tomorrow, the day after, and then I will have arrived at the weekend where I will be able to get my runs outside. That's the real treat of it all!
It was odd driving home today instead of going to the gym. But, I am feeling a little more refreshed already. Besides, it gave me time to finish book #5 of the current series I am reading and start up #6. Now THAT is refreshing!
