I don't believe in making up for missed workouts.
First of all, I try really hard not to miss a workout. But it does happen. Life happens.
And for as much as I would love to think I am in control of my life, I
have to realize that I am not. Sometimes I'm just tired, sometimes I'm sick, sometimes the kids are sick... sometimes I'm
tired - did I say that already? There is
nothing I can do about it. So every once
in a while (or a week), workout (... or two) gets missed. I don't try to cram those missed workouts
into the rest of my week. First of all,
I don't have time for that. I'm doing all
I can right now to get in the workouts I do.
Doubling up on an day - ain't gonna happen.
So what the heck am I supposed to do when I miss?
Nothing - Bag it.. I
like to try a positive spin and tell myself that I'm getting a bonus day of
rest. I may shed a little tear or two if
I were really looking to that early morning tempo run. After that, move on to the next day.
