Trail Not

Sorry for the negative posts recently, but I've been sick. It started with that little tickle in the back of my throat on Monday evening, but I drank a lot of fluids, ate my echinacea and vitamin C gummies, and when I still was feeling alright Wednesday, thought that I'd successfully fought of the flu. Not so. Wednesday night I started feeling bad, and things just got worse as the night wore on. I actually did run around the block Thursday night, but that was not a wise move. Now I'm feeling a little bit better, but I think that's mostly because of the cough/cold drugs I took. I still croak rather than speak and have that deep chest rattle cough.

I feel, however, like I should be getting out and running. Two days off (after a low milage week), and guilt is setting in. It doesn't help that the weather here continues to be unseasonally nice: sunny and highs in the mid-to-upper 50's. Great weekend for the Chilly Hilly, which I'm registered for, but will have to miss this year.
