Day 73: K-n-a-c-k-e-r-e-d

I was knackered when I woke up this morning and now even more knackered having finished my workout. I think the bicycle is going to kill me. Elevated tricep dips are hurting my previously dislocated shoulder which has been giving me a dull ache for weeks now.

Back to virtual skipping too. Didn't start working out (& skipping) until 5pm yesterday and the skipping was great, as Bruce said it would be. This morning, in extreme state of tiredness, I just couldn't get my feet over the rope, so old Rocky moves back in play. Very funny to watch mind you.

One of the reasons for the tiredness is lack of sleep. My husband is back in Tokyo and the open living in Bali makes me nervous as the kids are in one room and I didn't want to lock them in in case they needed the bathroom or had a nightmare in the middle of the night. So I startled at every single noise and hardly slept. The frogs jumping around the living room must have thought "who is this mad woman?" every time I opened my door to check a noise. I think I may sleep on the floor of their room tonight for my own sanity.

Off to the Bali Safari & Marine Park today. Will take my rope to see if I can actually do any jumps and maybe get in my extra 30 min of cardio whilst the kids frolic in the pool.

Day 72: Lazy day

Lazy day so far. Exhausted after a few hours in and on the river yesterday. Worst part was the 500 odd steps down to the river. Everyone else's legs were shaking at the end of that. Mine felt like jelly, but nowhere near the jelly from creeps or floor jumps. Others in our groups could not stop shaking. So that is the further evidence of improvement in my body from PCP. The 300 odd steps walk up was also surprisingly OK.

However, this morning was another matter. Has taken me all day to think about starting my skipping and exercises and not sure how I am going to manage an additional 30 min cardio on top of all that. Very, very weak. Very tired. Very bleah. Not helped by no real schedule today as that has enabled me to take my time. Taking the kids to the Safari park tomorrow so will need to make sure that I do another very early morning. Which just makes it even harder today to get my act together. But I will, because I have to.
