Insanity Workout: Fit Test #4 and Max Interval Circuit

Allergies, allergies, allergies!  They have been so unbelievably horrible for me today.  It makes me feel like I have a small cold and for some reason it’s making me very sleepy.  I wanted to get at least my 4th Fit Test completed before work tonight but I ended up taking an unexpected nap in the afternoon.  I do a lot of yelling at work and even though I don’t have a sore throat, I felt as if I had one.

All I wanted to do as soon when I got home was to go right to bed.  But I still had to do my Fit Test and workout and I was not going to let myself fall asleep without doing so.  I started out with the Fit Test.  I improved in each move but not by much this time around.  I think I went too hard on my last Fit Test so this one was a little harder as I tried to beat my old scores.  All that matters is that I improved.  At the end of my Fit Test, I felt winded and felt as if I had a cold.   I wanted to end it at that but I had Max Interval Circuit left.  It was hard getting through that workout but I made it through.

Is it possible for allergies to turn into a cold?  Or is it a combination of allergies and me doing too much exercise last Thursday and a busy weekend in the Dells?  I can’t tell at this point if it’s allergies that turned into a cold or if my allergies are really that bad.  I just don’t want to miss anymore days since I missed 4 days last month.  Cold or no cold, the only thing I can do now is take care of myself by getting a good night’s sleep, drinking plenty of fluids, and resting.  With that being said, time to get some sleep and I hope that I wake up all better tomorrow.
