Notes:
- I felt like I was shuffling on Monday’s run! Maybe my body just couldn’t warm up since it was 11° with a feel of -3°.
- But it felt so nice and warm when I ran on Wednesday! That was great! I had so much energy! It was a faster run for me.
- My Friday run was a faster clip too. I ran then got a chai then took a hot bath and felt sick from taking too hot of a bath. Ugh. I need to quit doing that.
- I did a quick strength workout Saturday morning before I drove to Iowa, but did a lot of reps since I was doing such a short workout, and really felt it Sunday! Almost more than a longer slower workout.
- It was so nice to walk with my dad on Sunday! I meant it to be a run day, and past Kim would have beat herself up for walking instead but when my dad said yes to a walk I was really happy. It was in the low teens but with no wind it actually felt great out, ha!
I tend to have the same problem with hot baths! If I make them too hot I get overheated and have almost passed out getting out of them before and then will get a headache. Blah. I managed to get the temp right over the weekend and had a nice bath with no issues though! I also now set myself up with a bunch of cold beverages when I take a bath.
I am glad you figured it out! It’s such a horrible feeling when you get that sick from it! I always have a cold bottle of water too. Now I want to take a bath.
