Ran easy pace 12 today.  Man Alive "CHRONIC FATIGUE ATTACK all day yesterday and until the morning.  I slept 9 hours and still felt exhausted when I awoke at 7am.  Last week my husband and I stained a new front door for our house and at first the stain and paint remover was okay to my system but doing it for four days I think was just too much for my body to handle.   I think that is why I couldn't sleep several nights last week-- like it made my brain hyper or something and then it fatigued my brain completely out not to mention that I continued to run my usual runs.  Nothing I ran was too taxing but with all the chemicals it just compounded greatly.  Plan today was easy pace run.  Planning a tempo run for tomorrow.  I am torn as Josse invited me for SW on the indoor track at BYU.  YUCK I hate track work-- goes back to my track trauma days I mentioned before.  Today I ran incline at 1% for all miles AP for 12= 7:52.   8:27, 8:20, 8:13, 8:06, 8:00, 7:53, 7:47, 7:47, 7:41, 7:41, 7:35, 7:24.  All felt comfortable.  Followed up with 15/15/10/10/8  pushups.  The floor was hard on my wrists so I am sure they will feel arthritic-like the next few days.  I need to do them on my carpet at home but I wanted them over with.  The grass is also a great place to do them on.  Also did one minute plank and sides at 30 sec x 1.  Yup lazy, but really just hungry.  I started this run at 8:20am and I had to wait 12 minutes for a TM.    Oh yah wore my Altras.  So love them.

Nice work Julie! I am sorry about the fatigue. No fun! I hope you take it easy for a few days and rest up.

Great progressive run on the torture machine. Good luck tomorrow, whatever you choose to do (I'm sure it will be FAST).

Glad you like your duck shoes. ;o)
