Training Log Archive: Spike

Plan for today = get up early, run about an hour (hilly), then do some biking.

But, when I went to bed last night, I spent nearly two hours hacking and coughing. Then slept like a log until after 9 a.m. I guess my body isn't really recovered from being sick.

I'll take the day off.

Easy PNS run on the way home. Feeling close to normal.

It was warm (low/mid 90s) and a strong, steady south wind was blowing. Not the nicest weather for running, but it was nicer than it'd be for riding a bike across Kansas.

Probably should have taken the day off again, but I really felt the need to do some jogging. I stopped at PNS and shuffled around the trails a little. Just as I was leaving, Mary arrived at the parking lot.

Feeling better, but still a bit sick. No training (though I spent 40 minutes pushing the mower around the yard). If things go as expected, I'll do something light tomorrow -- either a short jog or some time on the trainer.

20 minutes on the trainer is, essentially, nothing. But, I felt like moving a little bit would be a good thing in my quest to recover from jet lag.

My cold seems significantly better, but I'm not normal yet.

Long Day = Uppsala to Arlanda to Philadelphia to Kansas City.
