⇒ thursday mindwipe

had no willpower this afternoon. After leaving work, I went through the motions and ended up at the gym. However, I don't know if it was seeing the time (1830) or the super-runner...but I just felt no urge to move at all.

Did one set on the bench then jumped in the pool.

⇒ no truer words spoken:

Step seven: find the love

Ask yourself: do I want to work here? You’d be surprised how clearly job indifference shows. A lack of interest begets a lack of action and initiative. A lack of action and initiative means that your colleagues are less inclined to count on you, and worse, will do your tasks themselves rather than enlisting your help. This puts unnecessary pressure on them and maximizes the chance for error.

Furthermore, if you’re uninterested, all you’re doing is showing your employer that your job isn’t important to you—and certainly not critical to the company. If you’ve been allowing someone else to carry your load, it’s time to take it back and do your job. Find the love and let it show.

⇒ conquering goals

so after all the hubbub from yesterday's 'mistake', the boss has gone back to ignoring me...suits me fine. Just leave me alone for 12 more days...

that said, a horrible day at work yielded an excellent gym session:
new record!
2.8km in 17'15" (at least 16'15" continuous @ 9.9km/hr)
onto 4.0 in 26'40"
and 311 KCALs
13x60 = 780

this is my fastest time ever to achieve 4.0km and fastest time ever to reach 311 KCALs.
new continuous distance record too.

The run felt great...there were moments where I questioned myself, but ultimately, i ran better than ever before. It hurt, but not enough to stop me.

raindrops fallin on my head...

very patchy running again today, also short on time and de-powered (skipped dinner owing to 15hrs of consecutive sleep!).
Still, I managed to go, so that's something...

⇒ saturday

wasted 4 hours doing car sh!t in the morning...ya gotta do what ya gotta do...I'm not pissed that I was doing car stuff, but rather I'm doing car stuff yet I won't be the one who ends up getting to enjoy it! same with filling up the tank. I filled it right up, real expensive fuel too, then day after, I have to surrender the keys because someone else 'needs it more'...

that's me: trapped by overwhelming guilt or overwhelming anger...i just can't win.

ran patchy...sometimes good, sometimes crampy...overall new record:
4.0KM in 28'48"
301 KCALs

later tho, something really took it out of me that day tho, cause I slept for 15 hours in a row, completely missing dinner...I've got no idea how that happened...it was 730-ish, i felt drowsy, so I went to lie down...when I finally got out of bed again, it was 1030 next morning!
