Good list of "symptoms" of being a compulsive runner. At least nineteen of these apply to me. And #25 is my forte. Nobody passes me on a hill.
This post from Stanly Bing on CNN Money sums up my view on sleep perfectly. Those who follow me on Facebook or Twitter know of my (to their perspective) absurd habit of starting the day with a run before 4:30, and comment on their updates after midnight. The one area of any health evaluation I score poorly on is a lack of sleep. My wonderful wife constantly mutters about this habit.
But I don't see changing it. The closing paragraph posted above sums up the effects that a lack of sleep. Yes, there is a tendency towards impatience but finding ways to remain patient when needed builds character. Yes, the attention span suffers (it wasn't great to start with) but this forces one to be efficient in their tasks to see them through. Here's to a lack of sleep. Now for more coffee.
Average weight for American males is up 28 lbs. (or an entire turkey) since 1960. Maybe we should cut back on the turkey.
