Three mile run this morning. Really struggling with my emotional balance, but was glad to get out and move a little.

My walk / run goals aren't being met, but I might make it to 50 miles at the end of the month if I concentrate and work on it. But I'm so distracted these days.

Another Crossfit class this morning. Pretty challenging. I had fun. Exercise is the only truly positive outlet I have in this world. It makes you focus on the present and I always feel much better afterwards. I like my coaches as well. They are pretty supportive and helpful. So, I'm glad I made it out this morning.

Checking in. Meh. Been sleeping the day away. Definitely need to start budgeting more wisely in turn that would force me not to buy too many junk/surplus food and think twice before I give in n get takeaway.

Ran 4 miles this morning. It was really nice. Feel OK today.

Another Crossfit Class taken. This one was hard, but I made it. I have a lot to learn, which is exciting, but it's also frustrating when I can't seem to figure out certain movements. Still, I showed up and did it. And I'm sore! :P

Dragged the CPAP to get it hooked up so my quality of sleep can improve and see if it's related to the apena thing or something else healthwise.

I need quality sleep not quantity

I'm an insomniac so I feel this so deeply. If I get 5 good hours, I'm a different person. Eight hours of fitful sleep just leaves me annoyed! Good luck.

I ran 3 miles this morning in a bit of a drizzle. It was really nice.

My running partner is basically like a therapist too. I talked a lot about some things that have been depressing me, and she's always so supportive. It helps.

Crossfit class this morning. It was hard.

I'm terrified of box jumps because the first time I tried them (January of 2020, I think), I fell HARD and missed 2 days of work.

We started with the tiniest box ever. haha and I did OK. The rest was wall walks, push presses and I think that had me exhausted!

I'm wondering: anyone up to join me in a 72 hour fast?

I just need a reset.

Trying to go for 72 hours minimum.

I'd ideally like to share moral support, so we can use the chat.

Started at around 6:16 pm this evening and trying to go until Saturday.

Crossfit this morning. Kicked my butt. I'm at the beginning stages of learning to climb a rope. My arms feel like spaghetti! On top of that, we did a ton of push ups! :P Glad I went though.

How did you end up doing? Havent done a pure 3 day fast since 2016 (car accident and am on tons of medications due to that) am definitely up to 72 hour modified will take my meds with either yogurt or applesauce to prevent stomach issues. Glad someone else does it for health reasons. Resetting is definitely the right term for it

I'm working my way up to it, lol.

The 21/22 hour mark on the first day is an obstacle.

I'm trying to attempt an "Esther" fast (3 days dry fast), but I keep stumbling.
