Sick and Tired

Nothing like being sick to make you remember how awesome it is to not be sick. Ugh...I feel like roadkill, like death warmed over, like swine flu x 10. I must have Ebola or something. It hit hard it hit fast. I went to the YMCA yesterday for a 3 mile run (at 8:30/mile pace). I felt fine. Nothing to warn me of my impending illness. That was at 1:30. I went about the rest of my day and by 9 PM I was achy and icky. So here I am, a day on the couch with three blankets, chicken noodle soup, chocolate milk, OJ, and drugs.....Hopefully I will wake up and feel fine tomorrow! After all I have a 12K coming up in 12 days and I need to do some running!

I am done whining and feeling sorry for myself, for now.

Today I am grateful for:
Our law enforcement and their commitment to keeping our communities safe.
Tylenol.
Preschool.

Happy Running Friends! Stay warm and stay healthy!

    Oh no!! OK you know what is sorta funny about this.. I headed over here to see if you wanted to do a "Frosty Half Marathon" with me this weekend.. As fast as we can!! As in I want to do sub 2 hours..

    Can you tell that I really want to get to my 1,000 miles?? and help you get your goal before 2010??

    BUT....since you are sick I guess it will have to wait.. or maybe it will go as fast as it came..

    FYI...Blaine keeps asking "When are we going to have a friend over again?" He misses Levi already.. So cute!!

    Hugs and feel better ASAP!!
