I had to take a rest day as I was aching from Saturday’s workout. I really wanted to do this one but was just dragging. Took extra time today to grocery shop and do some cooking for the week and the challenge.

Bad start to the challenge in that I skipped breakfast but for some water. I didn’t eat until about 12:30pm!

12:30PM - Spinach salad w/grilled chicken, pecans, dried cranberries, avocado + green tea

8PM - 5 fronzen strawberries

Sleep - Not so great, about 7 hours but broken. My neck was aching due to Saturday’s AEP WOD so very uncomfortable and woke about every 2 hours.
