Today was a much needed rest day. I need to let my muscles recuperate a bit. I find that rest days are mentally tough sometimes. I feel like I should be out doing something but I can tell my body needs a break and will perform better if I take a day off. Its bit of an internal battle.
Not only that but today was a big family gathering for my step-dad who is nearing the end of his battle with lung cancer. It was a beautiful sunny day and family had traveled from all over to come visit. We all sat in the back yard and ate, drank, laughed, cried. It was nice and hard, he's under a 100lbs now and couldnt participate much in the conversation. I didnt get to give him a hug before he went to bed and I'm not sure i will see him again :( I just hope he felt the love of everyone there.
I way overate. I logged all my food and drinks and I think I was around 4500 calories, but I'm not going to beat myself up. It was a nice day and at least tomorrow is a long run day. Its not even 9 on a Saturday but I think I'm going to head to bed. I'm emotionally done.
