I think I should increase that intensity minutes target back up now.

The lower activity minutes target (210 minutes vs 500 minutes earlier) may be one reason.
Mentally & emotionally disengaging at work may be the other.

These have become rarer than a blue moon.
- My resting HR has gone up by nearly 20 bpm since the one-before-last post https://c306.net/spkeasy/2020/five-checkmark-day-3/.
- I haven’t run (or swum or biked) since the last one.
- I’ve eaten everything I can.
- I haven’t even walked much.
- Even though the weight is exactly the same, last time it was a spike. This time it’s the lower end of a stable range.
- Mental health has taken a toll.
- Today’s stress level of 39 is the lowest I’ve had in a week. The time before last, it was 16.
I’m a mess. Probably.
Five checkmark day
Been a really long time since I last had one of these.

Ran, walked the boys, went to B&Q, did some garden work, and chores around the house.
I’m dead now.
Five checkmark day & week
Long sleep; morning in bed with a book Bruno and Chewie; an hour running around Guildford; lazy afternoon on the sofa with the book, the phone, Bruno and Chewie; short evening walk with all three boys; and I’m already back in the bed.
Happy, productive, tiring 5 checkmark week.
Almost a five checkmark day
Morning in bed with coffee, books and hugging boys. Followed by another (nearly) 10K run—felt and ran better than yesterday. Then a short walk, with a little chase play, for the boys. Lazy, hot afternoon. Capped off with another evening spent in the cool river water with Chewie and Dudley. All ready to crash now. Happy! 🙂
