I don't know why my life is so crazy but it is. I skipped a gym workout this morning and got up at 5 am literally just to study and get life errands out of the way. And everything still feels like a disaster. :\ I also moved around some of the workout planning for later in the week so I can squeeze another gym session in and actually take a rest day at some point. We'll see how it all goes. Turns out the whole being a triathlete and going to med school thing is just a huge struggle. Here's the late update from yesterday.

Notes: I really didn't want to be there in the morning but am finding out that I'm a lot more fatigue resistant than I used to be. Not fading towards the end of practice means I've been finding myself getting more and more into practice as it goes on, which has been nice. I also definitely said to myself in the locker room before practice "I would give anything to not be here right now" and realized that all I would have to "give" is being slow and promptly changed my mind. I guess that means I'm still motivated to do something lol.
Hit Rate: 95/104 (91.3% - this includes this morning's skipped gym sesh)
Brick on the books for this afternoon. Loooooong day coming. Let's get it. (:
Much love,
Jess
