The night from hell :Will one night of horrible sleep effect me much?

i'd try to get in a nap definitely but as long as your sleep is good and consistent otherwise, it shouldn't affect you too much - although it's going to suck

Maybe skip the double.

Thanks, actually l might nap a while because l am off today, but l notice that lack of sleep on day gives me a jump for that day, but the next day is a different story.

No big deal.….the body can easily deal with one night of no sleep. If you have the opportunity take a nap, but don't worry about it. When I was younger and had a night of no sleep, I would freak out like I might explode or something. Now that I have 3 kids and no sleep is a regular thing sometimes for stretches, its no big deal.

Women with babies and women going through menopause wake up ever 2-4 hrs to feed those babies or deal with hot flashes. every. single. night.

one night of bad sleep? that would be a great week.

Yeah but whats their MPW

The worst thing to do is stress about a lack of sleep.

I ran my 800 PR on 2 hours sleep as I was in a noisy accommodation the night before where some people were partying.

Don’t sweat it. I had some awful depression earlier in the year, didn’t sleep for almost a week and managed a 5k PR. One night is nothing.

I've had sleepless nights before and generally don't run that well the next day, though I can do an easy run or eek out a bad workout. Tomorrow you should be good to go though. Skip the double and just do a short easy run if you feel bad. I'd try to deal with the gf situation or figure out what you're going to do if its irresolvable - ie breakup - that should give you solace. First, figure if its something that will matter long term, then decide if its something you can live with or not. In general, the only thing you have control over is your training and what direction you take in life, and then only to an extent.

She had a lot to drink, and started yelling and so on. It is hard for me to settle down for bedtime when l am all worked up, but last night it happened after l had already been asleep. I did the double today.

After sleeping for an hour, my girlfriend started a huge fight with me. This was my day to get a lot of rest,and l had a good weekend of training, and l have a double set today, but no session till Thursday. How will this effect me? I am hoping to nap an hour or two, but basically l had an hour of sleep or so.

many of those women who made the OTQ have babies and jobs. I also know women in their 40s and 50s doing 70+ miles per week.

a lot of women are sleep deprived all the time and soldier on.
