Total Distance

6.00

Ran to Sugarhouse, a couple laps around then back home. 8:09 average, felt really slow but I was exhausted. It’s gotta be my medication because I shouldn’t be this tired. I went to bed at 7 last night intending to just take an hour long nap because I was really, really tired and Olivia had invited me over for a movie night at 8, but I accidentally slept until 10:30. Then I felt really, really bad (I slept through the alarm I’d set!), but it’s ok we’re going to do something today. Anyways, then I had a bowl of cereal because I hadn’t had dinner (lol) and went back to bed. Didn’t fall asleep until around midnight but slept until 10am and only woke up because my sister Hattie came and woke me up because she wanted me to try the crepes she made. Haha I love her. Anyways, I’m still really tired and want to take a nap but I probably shouldn’t.

Mood’s a 6 or 7.

Yes, it makes sense that you are feeling sluggish. Discuss cutting or replacing the medication with your doctor. Explain to him or her, if you have not already, that a run at a slower pace with harder effort is a mental health minus, while a run at a faster pace with less effort is a mental health plus, and that needs to be a very important part of the equation in the dosage and the kind of medication you use.

Okay, thank you so much for your advice Sasha!
