Good morning, TEAM LIT!
MQ: Glad to hear you're feeling better. My trick at easing the mind away from burnout was always (and still is) about keeping it social and going with the flow, meaning seeking out social workouts at every opportunity and instead of doing what I had wanted to go with what others are doing.
Reg: Cat ever get down?
ksurp: Nicely done on getting back in the water!
Sparty: Got wired up?!
Yoshi: I think what you see between your overachieving daughter and son is actually quite common. It seems as if one sibling crowds out the other, so to speak, but doing and being. I'm sure it is difficult to remain neutral in at least the words you use around your son when talking about your daughter. I'm always very conscious of my words to not start/promote jealousy. I've always felt jealousy is the root of bad self image.
Me...
5 mile run early this morning. Really, really, REALLY happy to report that although I am still no where near back to normal, I am actually feeling much better when I run. This morning my opening mile was a 9:40, so you know I'm still effected by illness, but I was able to drop that into the 8's and then in to the 7's for the last three miles! I was actually running on top of my feet again rather than plodding. My legs still feel heavy and congested, but they are feeling less so than they had for the last three months. Also, my symptoms during times not running are definitely abating. Not gone, but far muted. Only today do I feel as if I've turned a corner.
Great day, friends!
