Perhaps a touch of self romance?

What, buying yourself flowers and chocolate???

Read any helmet thread before bed. Stronger than chloroform!

Well Gaz, glad you slept better but it may be a coincidence that last night you slept well, keep eating and keep exercise in check, over training isnt something that is cured in a day, or a week, if you are chronically over training (I suspect you may be based on this thread and others, but im not a doctor or sport scientist so this is purely speculation) it can take a good while to recover fully.

I doubt anyone would say told you so. You asked for advice, were given it and took it. I seems to have worked although only time will truly tell. Best of luck as I have the same problem. The best thing I ever did was make blackout curtains. I still have issues getting to sleep but once I get there I stay asleep until the alarms goes off (or until one of my cats decides it is time for me to get up )

Told you so

Well, actually, I didn't, but I thought it was good advice coming from other people. Hopefully, if you stick with it, it will help your sleep in the long term because I know how debilitating it is when you can't sleep properly.

I'll have to try it myself now and see if it improves my sleep.

One night of sleep does not make your sleeping fixed.

Wait until you have a few days in a row.


I could have a bad night and sleep fine the next just from being overtired, I wouldn't be fixed every other day.

Hoping for good things tonight

I've done 13 miles in total today and had 550 more cals than normal

Just to note, so your expectations arent raised and so you dont become dissapointed, a day to day adjustment is unlikely to influence your day to day sleep pattern, it takes sustained change and effort to alter your sleep pattern long term, also if its caused by over training, it takes time to recover from not a day or two. Not to be a debbie downer, just so you dont get hopes up then feel like you did something wrong.
