I got just under an hour and a half of sleep last night, right before it was time to start my day. I had a lot on my mind. And, unfortunately for me, the timing of this impromptu bout of insomnia was utterly dreadful.
I will say, though - had I not been in the healthy groove that I've established over the last couple of weeks, I don't think I'd have been physically able to make it through it all.
Today was day 1 of a 3-day training course that I signed up for at work. It's something that's been a long time coming, as I've pursued this course for as long as I've been with this company. I wasn't going to miss it for anything, but more than that, I needed to be ready to take it all in and make the most of the opportunity.
I was present, attentive, and performed at the top of the class. I got some steps in throughout the day, did mobility work during breaks, and nailed my 1st meal and water intake.
At the end of the workbday I took a 2 hour nap, which I sorely needed. Afterwards I got up and made dinner for the fam, then spent almost two hours getting in more steps, more mobility work, and a solid lift.
I just had meal 2 - leftover roasted chicken, air fryer broccoli, a microwave baked sweet potatoes, half an apple, some cottage cheese, and a handful of nuts.
Gonna try and push my step count a bit higher when my food settles, then its off to shower and then hopefully to bed.
Today, I felt like saying 'screw it' and take the easy way out. Instead, I gutted it out and made progress towards both my professional and personal goals.
What a day.
