Fatigue

I'm so tired that sitting in my car before I head into the gym has me toy with the idea of closing my eyes, I'd fall asleep instantly. Which is why I don't. I always feel better when I leave but eventually the sleep deficit catches up. Another good reason to take my vitamins, get a flu shot, and a daily dose of black elderberry syrup.

I'm not surprised that I can't make it to 2.8 miles either because not only am I tired, parts of my body are a tad sore. I knock out the core routine without any issues. Push-ups are a bit harder when you stare at the wall (mirror) in front of you instead of the floor and I'm still accidentally smacking mat with my chest and stomach. The DB Laterals seem a little easier today though. 

The only thing I don't get to are the Hammer Grip Pull-ups and that's because Snow Bird is compulsively wiping down the Stretch Cage as I walk through the gym. I don't have time to wait around to see if he's at the beginning or end of his vigorous stretch routine but I suspect he hasn't started yet. Most folks aren't very diligent wiping down after their workouts as they are before they start. And he's in his 80s, so I know he's being extra cautious.
