Balancing Running with Smart Contract Hustle and Mythological Obsessions

So, I’m a runner who also spends a lot of time deep in smart contract code and ancient myths. I’ve found that my main hobbies coding and reading are pretty sedentary, which makes sticking to a consistent running schedule tougher than I expected. My brain is often fried from debugging or lost in a story, and the last thing it wants is to lace up for a 5k. Has anyone else dealt with that mental switch from deep focus to physical exertion? I’m also curious about recovery. After a long run, my legs are toast, but my mind is still buzzing and wants to work. Finding that balance between letting my body rest and not feeling like I’m wasting productive mental time is a real puzzle. What strategies have worked for you when your physical and mental energy levels are totally out of sync?
