Raise your hand if you have been sleep deprived this week?
If you are anything like me, I have one guess as to why:
And not just the Swimming portion of the Olympics are keeping me up. It’s Gymnastics. I mean sheesh, those ladies are all powerhouses and dynamite! And don’t pretend that you aren’t sitting on your couch, cheering so loud that your emotions don’t get conjured up and you shed a tear when Team USA out touches someone at the wall or lands a triple flip, corkscrew, with a half twist thing. I mean I have to keep the Kleenex by my side.
Couple the Olympics with meetings and a fun birthday dinner for a friend, I am wiped out. I’m just excited to have my Friday night routine of dinner and NCIS re-runs tonight. Sounds perfect… or maybe I’ll watch just a few minutes of the Olympics and pray I don’t stay up passed my bedtime. Either way, resting up for my long run tomorrow will be done.
So Happy Friday and cheers to Rest Days.
Do you take rest days?
I refuse to believe that staying up late watching the Olympics is why I am tired this week
It’s un-American if you’re not! Haha. USA USA USA.
I know! The bags under my eyes are ridiculous, but I must keep on watching
Haha I take rest days, but not because I stay up late watching the Olympics
I take a rest when I’m tired for other reasons, or just when I’ve been working out 5-6 days and know I need it. Gotta rest!
The Olympics have definitely been keeping me up this week, too! I generally take rest days on Fridays, but this week I’m taking to tomorrow as we’ll be traveling most of the day. I’m hoping to catch up on sleep on vacation!
Have a great vacation!!!
