Am totally spent. Just got out of bed at a time where I’d typically be done with a good workout. The past two days have been insane at work.
Wednesday, my initial day off, I worked from 9.45am to 12.45am the next day.
Yesterday, I worked till 10.15pm.
I managed to do a two-hour run on Wednesday morning, but yesterday I was too tired to wake up to do so. And I was too busy in the day. Get this… I was having a spin in the gym and then was called back to amend my story. That was about 5.30pm and I’d only been spinning for 10 minutes. By the time I finished reworking the story it was about 8.10pm, ran to the gym for a 30min spin and a bit of core exercises, didn’t shower and went back to my desk to further rework my story. I hadn’t eaten and had cereal and crispbread for dinner when I got home after 10.30pm.
I hope today doesn’t turn out that way too. Though I’m way too tired to do any exercise. Will try to fit in a run later… try.

Hi Jeanette
I am a secondary school teacher and my work hours (if you include the unofficial ones that is) are pretty much what you had to go through the past few days. My day officially starts at 6.30 in the morning and i end at around 6.30 in the evening four days a week. Then i have tons of markings and other administrative duties as well. These i do at home as i am hardly ever at my desk during the day. I sleep an average of 5 hours every night and I struggle to find the time and the energy to do my runs. Just so you know, i understand what you are going through. I live it everyday.
Thanks for the encouragement, Nora!
