So I didn't swim yesterday...

...or lift weights. Have you ever gotten what feels like whiplash from sleeping wrong? I think my pillow is the culprit and so I've had to obtain a divorce from it! It's one of those Tempurpedic jobs that is supposed to cradle your neck. However, if you happen to move slightly to the left or right sometime between REM cycles, you're kinda screwed with the whole "cradling" concept! It hurt so bad I had to make an emergency massage appointment for this morning--and it wasn't one of those massages that allows you drift off into a dreamlike state--instead, it was the kind where you're trying your best to remain relaxed (and not squeal in pain) while the therapist is pushing her thumb into what feels like big marbles in your back! Believe it or not, I was able to go on my 7.5 mile run this morning before my appt--I wanted to reap the benefit of the massage after the run, but I am now going to have to give up my day off tomorrow and swim and lift weights. Hopefully, my neck will be ready for it!
