Sat + Sunday = mental health days

Maybe it's the fact that there's a blizzard outside or mabye it's the fact the Weather Channel says it's - 35C with the windchill or maybe it's just because of feeling run down with work, school et al. Reguardless of the cause, I elected to take Saturday and today as mental health days! YAY!

What pray tell is a mental health day? Well you need several things.
1) Cheesecake or anything sweet to eat and lots of it!
2) Several movies. In my case, I rented 16 blocks (hated it! LOL), FireWall and Lucky Number Slevin.
3) A clear schedule so you can kick back, relax and rejuvenate.

I took all of yesterday off completely. I did JS except eat cake, drink milk and watch movies.... ALL FRICKING DAY! LOL... it was awesome!

Woke up this morning feeling mentally refreshed although my tummy was a tad "upset" from all the sweets LOL . No matter... I burned off a few calories this morning with a leisurely Sunday brick workout.

25 km bike AvHR: 115 (58% MHR, < zone 1)
3.5 km run AvHR: 124 (63% MHR, zone 1)

I am really looking forward to December. Next Sunday I'm attending the Alberta Triathlon Associations first meeting of the '07 session where I'm on the board of directors as a "Member at Large"; a position I was recently nominated to.

I also have a race this Saturday! 5km Santa Shuffle. Thankfully the forcast is for sun and -4C. I'll still bundle up though!

So when the weather outside is frightful, but the fire is so delightful... eat cheesecake!
