My Little Buddy has a fever. He has been breathing all over me, climbing all over me, kissing me, licking me (yes, he thinks he is a puppy sometimes), snuggling and cuddling with me, coughing on me, sneezing on me....and the list goes on. I cannot, REPEAT: CANNOT get sick right now. That could be detrimental to my half on Sunday. Not to mention I have been stressed out all week, which always translates into a weaker immune system. So cross your fingers friends!
On a side note, only 11 miles this week! Today is an easy 4 miles, tomorrow a 30 tempo run and Turkey Day is only 3 miles! After that I rest until Sunday.
Today I am grateful for:
Fuzzy socks!
Happy memories.
Breaks in the rain.
My first giveaway!! Hooray! More on that Thursday!
Run Happy everyone!!
I totally understand how you feel. Before I did my first half I had a sinus infection and was diagnosed with H1N1. I will be thinking of you and good thoughts for no sickness!
ReplyDeleteFingers are crossed here although I think your immune system should be strong because off all the running outside in every weather. Even though I still keep them crossed.
ReplyDeleteI can not stress enough how I lived off of Airborne prior to Chicago!!!! I also bought Lysol and disinfected everything in sight. LOL! I hope the little one feels better and you stay healthy for your Half! Good luck girl!
ReplyDeleteOh no! I hope your little buddy is feeling better and you manage to avoid it! GL w/your half!!
ReplyDeleteDrink that water and stay healthy! Happy Thanksgiving! Hope your little guy feels better quickly.
ReplyDeleteI was taking Vit C and Zicam almost hourly the week before my marathon! Here's hoping your immune system can keep you healthy (at least until Sunday night)!
ReplyDeleteOMW hang in there buddy.. Focus on the word HEALTHY. I am convinced that Mom's have super powers to avoid the kiddo gunk...otherwise we would be sick all the time.
ReplyDeleteHugs and less stress baby.
Giveaway... YIPPERS!!
My son was sick before my marathon. We were cooped up in the car and hotel with all this coughing and sniffling for 3 days. I wore a dental mask from work to bed and in the car. My husband thought I was crazy but I didn't get sick. Hope you make it through!!! Good luck this weekend!
ReplyDeletethink HEALTHY thoughts!! Hang in there!!! (and sleep well, that's always the determining factor for the germs getting to me !)
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about getting sick, too! I'm not, but I didn't feel good one day and I thought nooooooooo! Stay healthy! See you Sunday!
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog! Glad to find another running blogger! Have a Happy Thanksgiving and good luck on Sunday!
ReplyDeleteOh no! Hang in there- I was just sick for my last half (turns out I had a double ear infection and sinus infection) and even though I did okay, I wasn't 100%. I hope your little one feels better and you stay clear of it!
ReplyDeleteI left an award for you on my blog cause you're my running inspiration. You can find it here if you're interested:

ReplyDeleteI know the feeling! Anytime anyone around me sneezes I am a maniac with the hand sanitizer. Hope you stave off that cold. Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteWish you much health.
