Complete drainage ...
I don't know what is going on. I was ready to go this morning, even though it was 8 degrees out ... had my alarm set for 4:45am ... would hit spinning class and come back go for my run. I missed it all, apparently I even woke up to turn my alarm off, but I remember nothing. I don't know where my energy has gone. The first couple of weeks I seemed to react fine to the early mornings and I really wanted to try and get back in that routine. I can not seem to get a grasp of it though. Everytime I workout one day I miss everything the next. I don't know if I can get back to a normal routine until after Val because work is going to get in the way. I am OnCall tomorrow from 8:30am to 8:30 pm and then Monday night from 8:30pm to 8:30am which brings me into Val just dog tired. I will try my best to maintain, but I have missed cycling for two weeks now and swimming complete this week. I have only been running once and hopefully I can get out on Sat for a run and then get back in the pool on Monday since I have the daytime off.

Frustrated
I know what it takes to get into shape and keep improving upon it. I have done it for most of my life in the swimming arena. It is really becoming frustrating though to try and combine work with training because I have never really had to do that. Getting up at 4:45 am when you are getting called at all hours of the night for work is not a match made in heaven. Last night my wife was doing gymnastics in bed tossing and turning and I am pretty sure it was about 1 or 1:30 am when I finally got to sleep.

Very disappointing
I missed out on another round of spinning and running this morning. This week has just been unreal with how it has completely messed up my schedule. I mean getting up at 4:45am to go to spinning and then go running requires you get at least for me about 4 -5 hours of sleep to function. My job however requires that we be oncall from time to time and I have run into it head first this week. Getting calls in the middle of the night, which disrupts the sleep, which in turn requires me to sleep in when I should be working out.

All Systems Go
Well for the past two days I have just been swamped and all of that I think just completely drained me. Literally I felt about at 70% energy ... just lethargic and weak ... I thought for sure I was going to be sick, but I woke on this morning feeling fresh and ready to take on the pool. I skipped monday 's swim due to work related issue's. Then yesterday I just could not move from bed ... weak as could be .. both physically and mentally!
