Track and share your training!
Dailymile makes it easy to keep track of your workouts. Map your routes and share with a community of active people.
The good news: 8 (sleeping-pill-aided) hours of restful sleep later I feel WAY more like myself this morning. Though those things produce some freaky deaky dreams, I tell you what.
The bad news: Inhaling this box of milk duds is probably not optimal. But we all have our milk dud days, you know?
The maybe news: If the 18 y.o. bothers to show up today I'll get in a run later. Not holding my breath!


Milk duds mmmmmmmmmmmm you take those boys out and run this afternoon K !!??!!

Huh, DM ate my comment. Bottom line: I have had daily mint M&Ms since like Christmas. Ain't no thang. Also struggling with insomnia myself. Run for me, will you? I'm stuck at work for the next million years. *sigh*

Yum yum, I feel for you rob with the sleep (or lack of sleep!) issues. I often struggle myself, and for me working a 12 hour shift pattern which is 4 weeks of days and then 4 week of nights really screws me up. Hope you get some quality shut eye soon.

You are right, inhaling a box of milk duds is not optimal. Inhaling 2 boxes of milk duds is optimal.

I want to hear more about these freaky deaky dreams! The good news is I am not a milk duds fan. The bad news is I am an every-other-type-of-candy fan. Hope you get some miles in!!

Carboloading! I find a glass of wine before bed works great as well :)

Milk duds? Did someone hack Rob's account? Hey Rob, if it really is you, what sleeping aid did you take? Have never taken anything like that but real sleep and even funky dreams would be a welcome thing about now.

Milk duds are my weakness! I find that a few before a run provide awesome fuel, too many provide a hell of a side cramp.

Kevin, they're plain old Target brand sleep aid pills. I take them when I'm desperate, and they work like a charm for me.

I've been eating miniature york peppermint patties with a glass of milk every night before bed for the last 15 years. Mmmm, frosty carbs!
