100 mile challenge



Recommended Posts

Not sure what I am going to do today as far as miles go. I have spent most of the the day being physically overly tired, sleepy. Still waiting to wake up and it is 1:30 pm already. Oh and lots of sneezing and sniffling this morning. My body woke up at 4:30am this morning where I really needed to sleep at least another hour for recovery purposes (got 6 hours sleep). Need to get jazzed up soon for doing something in terms of working out around 4 pm rather than drooling on my keyboard fighting sleep (work suffered today). And yes I tried caffeine already this morning.

+1 mile. No met-con Wod (rest day). Worked on dead lifts (#295) in addition to skill training: power cleans and muscle ups.

Not sure exactly what's wrong but I hope you get to feeling better soon.

No bike ride today, just a 2.56 walk. That puts me at 83 miles even. 17 miles to go. My weekend goal is 90 miles by Sunday night. I got this.

I know exactly what is wrong. :) overtraining. Doing 4 days of intense cross fit workouts in a row is taxing, especially yesterday when I ran 3miles in about 17 min ( each mile we were instructed to run far beyond comfort). I feel much better this afternoon, but was showing to classic signs of overtraining this morning (lethargic, weakened immunity, bad sleep pattern last night, decreased desire to eat). Just need to be careful about it no matter how driven I get. Gotta get it in my mind 3 days on and 1 day off.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
