I guess I should start off by saying that I didn't completely fall off the wagon while in San Fran. Of my 4 days there, I did 3 treatments a day twice and two treatments a day twice. Not terrible, but not great either. It wouldn't have been as bad if I would of stuck to an exercise routine while I was out there, but then again, it could have been much worse if we hadn't walked about 5 miles a day (at least). So, to summarize, there was a lot of give and take on this trip, but I'm afraid I did mostly taking...and I feel it. Not that I feel bad, but I just feel off. I'm going to have to hit the ground running tomorrow and make a plan and stick to it. That was of course the plan today, but as seems to be a common theme of this blog, I blew it.
I was fully planning to run the entire day and then what seemed to be in the eleventh hour, Mandi and I went on a bike ride instead. It was pure joy and an absolutely great time with my lovely wife, but deep down I just know it wasn't what I needed to do. I should of run before the ride. I needed to really step up to the plate today and I failed. It certainly wasn't planned, but it happened. I would have rather said that after my run today I went on a 5 mile bike ride with Mandi, but I can't. I wish I could tell you that I ran, but I won't. Now, the only way to fix it, is to make better decisions going forward.
Tomorrow is back on the wagon for this guy. I really need to get better at adjusting after being out of the same ol' routine for just four short days. I also need to get better at being committed to running even when not in the comfort of my own neighborhood.
Looks like I have a lot of improving to do. Let's hope it's all on the up and up from here...actually, screw that, it will be.
