Two loops were too much. It’s hard to describe how I felt when I woke up this afternoon because it wasn’t a physical feeling. I slept very deeply and woke up later than usual. It was really strange, my body felt fine and well rested. My mind didn’t though. I didn’t have any kind of headache, but it felt like I was wearing a fuzzy helmet. There was definitely a sense that there was something surrounding my head. My thinking was slow but still seemed clear. I wasn’t in a bad mood, but I don’t seem to have any detectable mood at all. I did the stuff I normally do to get ready and get into work just fine, but seemed to be doing it on auto pilot. The feeling dissipated somewhat about fourth five minutes after I woke up, but I’m still not all the way here. The sense of dissociation from my body that I got while loops were running has continued all day today. This is weird, I’ve never felt symptoms of heavy mental exhaustion without any signs of physical exhaustion before. It is definitely time to take a break. I don’t know how long, but I won’t be running more than one loop a day again.
