I really lost my mojo in the middle of the week. I am glad I was able to get a good run in on Friday. Wednesday and Thursday were bad.
What do you do to get back on track?
your family picture is great, do you also have a best jogging stroller for your baby? i think you must have because it will help you most of the time.
ReplyDeleteIt's a tough training schedule! In order to mobilize all available energy resourses of your body you need proper nutrition. Most nutrients are received from food, though, sometimes it is not enough. I am taking dietary supplement Multipurpose High-Potency Super Nutritional Complex, manufactured by Military Grade Nutritionals. Order it at amazon (h t t p: //amzn.to/Y0uraF) Due to this supplement, I forgot when I felt fatigue last time. I am able to run or workout whenever I want and still have lots of energy for active recreation with my family. I live in constant motion and I enjoy it!
