Hi all -
I've really been struggling with motivation this week. I keep thinking I'm just tired but that really isn't it. I went back and looked at my schedule and saw that two weeks ago I was at triathlon camp and realized I must be in the post event funk. Typically I go through this 10 - 14 days after a big race but I've been known to go through this after long training pushes. I have a tendancy towards depression if I don't take care of myself and this is what it feels like.
This feels different than being tired from training. If you've gone through this you understand what I mean.
Anyone else go through this? How do you snap out of it? I'm getting rest and while my sugar intake has been high I've been eating well otherwise. I haven't worked out in 3 days and I'm supposed to be in the middle of my last big push for CdA. Ugh.
Help!?
