Today was not the best day for workouts. I got a yoga workout in, but it was short and wasn't that intense. Part of the reason was that it got started very late, it was after 8pm before I got started and I had already taken a benedryl and was sucking on a cough drop. I felt pretty good today actually, better than I've felt in 2-3 days, but after I got home from work I started coughing more and took some stuff to get over it.
So not the best workout, but I did get something done. I didn't run today because I just decided that I'm being unnecessarily aggressive on that front and I can just as easily run on Saturday and give myself another day or two of rest to finally get over this cough and illness. I've felt pretty good a few times since I got sick, and every time I go for a run I feel terrible the next day. So I'm erring on the side of caution for one day, it irks me, but I know it's the right decision.
My diet the last 2 weeks has been a little more relaxed than I would like it to be. I'm not sure if it's because I've been sick or tired or worn out. Whatever it is I'm hoping to replace that shortly and get back on the wagon. I have a feeling that my second phase results won't be where I want them to be, but the fact that I haven't missed a workout and have spent the last two weeks sick and tired will be factored in and I'll take not missing and workout as my saving grace. This isn't just a 90 day workout and then nothing, I'm hoping to keep this up for a long time to come. So I can't let the short-term detract from the long term.
Legs and back tomorrow. I'm going to take my frustration on my lousy workout today on that one tomorrow. Looking forward to it.
