Frustration = Good work out

So yesterday flat out sucked. I had to go into work on my day off to sit through meetings to learn that my schedule may not be changing. I can't remember the last time I have been so incrediblity livid. The worst part was that I usually work out when I am mad and it gets rid of all the tension. However, with my lovely night schedule, I can't very well go to the gym when I get off work - it closes at midnight and some nights I don't get home until 2. So here I was last night, pissed, frustrated and trying to fall asleep - which worked for about 2 hours. Then woke up mad again and could not fall back asleep. I laid there for HOURS getting more and more angry and just wanted to freaking run it out. Didn't happen...



Finally got to sleep sometime after 5am.. got up, went to the gym, and had an AMAZING run. It was about 10 minutes longer than I've done in a long time and it just felt great. I just hate that I no longer have the opportunity to run AFTER work - especially after those days with tough cases or when co-workers just piss me off.



Now I am at work again - had a much better day but sooo tired. So moral of the story... Don't go to bed mad!!!



Isn't there some research about working out releasing positive endorphines or some crap like that? Now that I am back going to the gym everyday I can't even believe I went this long without one here in Philly... feel so much better and it gives me an outlet. Now I just need to start boxing again...
