Tested positive for strep yesterday, so started a round of antibiotics. That explains why I'm still feeling crappy.

10 x 3:00 on/1:00 off fartlek. I had 6 x mile on the calendar but decided I needed to ease back into things a little more after all the illness. I felt pretty good, if quick to fatigue. Averaged somewhere around 5:55 for these.
