hmmm make sure it's not too much you feel you need - just be sure you're not secretly also under the weather or having some vitamin or mineral or thyroid etc. deficiency :)

Thanks, I was afraid that may be it. The weather's changing and I've been pushing it with other workouts too. Thanks for the response.

Yes! Overall I've been more tired than ever since I started this program. But I had surgery last year and did zero activity for a long time. I hope as I become more fit, the exhaustion will go away.

I lie awake wondering why running ten miles doesn't make me sleep better..........

That's terrible. I'll take my need for sleep over having to lie awake. Good luck!
