I have a very hard time with taking a "rest" day. I know I should....I just don't..maybe once every month or so. ( I guess this is my addiction ) I just love to move/exercise so much.

On weekends I usually do something pretty long up in the mountains..long hikes/climb, mtn bike, or a long run. Weekdays it is riding my spin bike and weights or running. I have the best intention of resting but by the time I get home I change my mind and go out and do something. I have noticed that the older I have gotten the slower I recover. I am in my early 40s.
