The What's going on everyone? Emily Abotti here.

You are listening to Five Minute Friday from Hurtle.

It's so good to have you listening. It's also been really invigorating the launch of this new season.

It feels like there's an exciting momentum right now.

I think it comes hand in hand with summer, tailing off,

fall, my favorite season, on the horizon, fall fall marathon season you know me I love a marathon they are

coming we're doing all the things and I'm really amped because by the time that this

episode hits the feed I'm going to be in Oregon

gearing up to run my first ever hood to coast which I talked about last week on the show

it's a relay race that goes from Mount Hood to the coast in Oregon and I could not be more excited.

This week for the show I want to talk about feeling overwhelmed.

Now after any big thing, I feel like classically people talk about the post wedding

blues on the show I've talked about the post marathon blues very different than a

wedding after any big thing it's inevitable that there's going to be some sort of a come down.

And I think that for the most part in the last few years I've avoided this come down because

I am a thing stacker. I love to know exactly what's going to be happening next,

what I'm going to be working on next before the current project is already over.

With that said, even in this one week period

that I had home after getting home from Paris, I felt not so much the post big thing blues come down, but more so, purely overwhelmed.

And not because I feel like there's too much on me I actually feel like

my workload right now is very doable but it's the sense of almost paralysis in

that I want to do more things but I it it feels like a lot.
