Come on body - I expect more from you than waking up way too early and then wanting to sleep for the most useful parts of the day. My quest to be the super athlete I know I can be (until proven otherwise) is challenged daily by my inability to sleep at convenient times. I woke up today at 7am. Got up, made a smoothie, and now - at 8:20 am I feel sleep calling me again. The dog hasn't even bothered to get up.
She knows me too well. I've been watching a video on Instagram by superhumanyogi. In the video he's working out in the snow and the rain doing his handstand press ups and making other superhuman stuff look like child's play. I want that stuff. I want it really bad, but I want to sleep more. I'm going back to sleep as soon as I've finished writing this post. In fact, I'm not even going to finish this post - I'm going back to sleep now. I've wanted to write for a while now, but I've procrastinated forever on starting a new blog. Now it's done. It's started. I got up early. I made an amazing smoothie with nuts and fruit and spirulina. I was on fire for about half an hour. I sat in bed with my smoothie reading a book by an ultramarathon runner. Now I'm done. The weights, the hill trail, the ab session and yoga will have to wake until I'm back from wherever it is that we go when we sleep.
