Off.

Anxiety was out of control. Talked to my parents. Dad is showing definite signs of decline. Drank too much and went to bed before 8 without any dinner.

PM: 60' on the trainer (Lazy Mountain). 124W. HR 115.

Started to get better today. Took a shower and continued to focus on hydration. Called the doctor to get a prescription refill and finally got a call about that. I was feeling much better by the end of the day.

AM: 60' on the trainer (Bald Knob -1). 147W. HR 121.

Felt like a different person today. Switched ordering of sessions as it was around 20 outside with a windchill and now that I have the ability to cherrypick my weather I do it.

PM: 7.6 miles, averaged 8:33. HR 159.

55' Progression + 10' CD

Kind of unplanned. It was very cold and wanted to move a bit. Started with a 10' mile and then progressed from 8:49-7:20. Likely will start some low-stakes midweeks to try to build fitness as I rebuild my base.

We hung out at our uncle's and had breakfast. Went to see some of Megan's friends and then her parents. I was an absolute anxious mess. Her dad was also an axious mess. Rough day.

Quite anxious today, but I did buy a dedicated trainer with some of the money my grandmother left us.
