Working Midnight Shift this week.  Today's workout was tough.  It happens every time I switch shifts.  My body does not adjust well to the different sleep patterns.  Everything just felt harder today.

The lack of sleep from working Midnights this week catches up to me a little more each day.  Up to the moment my car pulled into the parking lot I thought about turning around and going home.  Just the thought of diving into the water seemed not worth it.  But I took it easy and slow and got it done.  It was kind of like doing a slow jog when you put it into running terms.

I wake up around 4 and the pool closes at 5.  No swim today.  Might try for a short swim on Sunday.  Then Monday begins a new workout week.
