I didn’t push myself today because I had the pacing off.
I’m pissed off about it and will re-do the workout tomorrow.
I know I can do better and it sucks.
Two things I’m noticing:
1) I have nothing in me on Thursdays. I was swimming on Thursdays for active recovery but can’t resist a good CrossFit workout,but now I’ve decided after today to just do the workout on my own if it’s good. I HAVE to take Thursdays off and get back in the pool. Period. Otherwise, I just go to CrossFit and my workout sucks and it pisses me off. This is the second week this has happened.
2) When no one shows up to work against, I become lackadaisical. And I hate that. I have to find a way to push myself even when no one is at my level. And I just haven’t found that yet.
Lessons learned only through experience. My body needs rest. AND I have to push myself even when I’m way out in front. I have to. Now finding that inner drive will be the hard part.
