6 miles easy and then 2 hard effort miles. I was gave a pretty good effort but made sure not to race it. Didn't feel super good today but I think I'm getting better. I had an appointment with the allergist today, she said that my asthma medicine might be causing the cramps, so I'm on a new one, unfortunately its also might cause cramps. I've decided to stop taking my heartburn medicine because even though it just cuts down on acid to reduce the pain, I think that if something is giving me heartburn, it might be harming my body in other ways so I want to know if its causing heartburn so I won't eat it. I got a nose scope and my nostrils have lots of spots that have been bleeding and is very dry, I need to use my allergy nose spray better so it goes where its supposed to. I also found out Ive had a chronic sinus infection since before the 5th grade, so I will get that fixed hopefully. I dont think that the sinus infection thing is affecting me because I had a few good races over the past few years.
