I think I’ve been having a “low-key” phase. Training-wise. I am not sure how I feel about that. I have done a fair amount of walking, and a few isometrics.
I miss running like crazy. It’s been… ummm more than one year?.. Since I last ran free.
I played tennis yesterday, on clay, and that put me down as well, as I can’t run to the ball without irritation.
It’s nice though… smacking the ball. My levels of concentration have gone up a lot lately, I just wonder how good I would be if I could actually use the full court freely!
My cross-court forehand is still pretty amazing, btw.
And my backhand volley has never been this stable.
I am pissed off with this knee of mine, and I haven’t actually complained about it for a long time, but tonight I can’t sleep, I don’t want to read, I am too tired to paint, and too energized to do nothing.
I have 6 paintings in progress, I love them all (so far), I wonder when I will finish them.
The same as I wonder when I will fulfill my dreams.
Never. I make them more difficult every single day!
I got accepted into a well-respected Phd, found out yesterday. Next week I will compete for another phd, I guess I like having 2 to pick from… Well, that starts in January. It gives me 3 more years (at least) to figure out what I truly want to do in my life, if that ever has to be resolved, really…
I ate pizza today. I am tired of crapness (in general). I think I will put myself through detox starting tomorrow.
Hard to detox the mind though, especially living among human beings.
Bob Marley says it best: “Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds”.
Training journal? Whoever said this is not training…
Mind, body and soul…
I’m phasing through a plateau.
