The week is starting out much too busy for my taste, lots of deadlines looming on the horizon at my job. My wife has vacation this week and is visiting an aunt for a few days, so I am working long days at work – too bad I don’t get paid overtime, I’d be rich!
Yesterday I left work at normal quitting time, went home, ran 9K/5.5M, then worked a few more hours on my laptop.
This morning was a brisk 2C/36F, with a teeth-chattering north wind that cut through the clothes. The weather forecast is calling for a lot of snow today and tomorrow, but so far I haven’t seen any – maybe it will pass us by.
The sudden change from spring temperatures to almost frostbite is really beating me to death mentally as I try to get focused for my race on Saturday. I tend to meticulously plan every detail for race day in advance, but with this rapid weather change, even making it to the race is not certain. So excuse me while I go check the weather report again and freak out…
Does freaking out burn extra calories??? :-)
I love freaking out:) but try hard not to lately. Too much of my life gets out of hands anyway, so I could go mental if I keep doing it.
Stay warm!
Oh, the unknown and un-planned is scary, real scary. I'm with you!
