Smooth

Another sleep-deprived day! Just 5 hours sleep! Started the day pouring milk onto my All Bran that had the consistency of cream. A whiff of it told me not to touch it. I hate throwing out food - what a waste!

I only went to sleep at 4am - just couldn't sleep earlier. Hopefully tonight I will just shutdown earlier. I think I will give myself one or two hours to ease down. Read Mrs Dalloway or a Lonely Planet or something. My thoughts just kept racing and I had to say to my brain BE QUIET!

With it being so cold and being so sleep deprived, I am not going to swim today. It's possible I won't run either. I will go to gym and work on my legs. But it's important not to gym so that the next day I am too sore to do anything. That's what usually happens when I start going to gym after a period of not going.
I realise the cold weather is going to get a lot colder, and December is really the crucial month just to maintain a good basic level of fitness. I am right at the beginning with an injured foot, so I want to make sure it heals. I still have a big comfortable cushion of time.

My swimming is also fine for this early, and I have a whole week to do 3 sessions. I'd like to do a session tomorrow, Friday and Sunday. Possibly I will run hills tomorrow if my foot feels better.
Maybe I should cut down from 4 runs a week to 3, just until it gets stronger again. Hopefully going to the gym will help that process. And then I can start going twice a day when I am getting back again.

At school today we did a filtration experiment and although in most of the experiments the dirty water didn't change into clean water, there were two that were very good, and one that was perfect.

Toast with peanut butter for lunch.
