Over to the DC and back. Temps were cooler again today like 75 F at 5 a.m when I left the house and dropped to 72 F for the low. Felt fantastic. Coolair on the bare chest almost feels like I'm stealing something. The sunrise was amazing too... made me want to be out on a boat at Powell at daybreak with glass to play on:).  Ran past Stephen Abraham Lincoln Hooper Pope as he was rocking out a tempo. My run was so so. Still battling the sick symptoms I've had for almost a week. If anyone has any aid or advice about low serotonin levels.... dropping antidepresant pills cold turky and the withdrawl efects... I'd be greatful. As this it totally unlike ANYTHING I've ever delt with. Scary, painful, physically draining, mentally deflating... IDK. It's been one week today since I stopped taking the pills and the withdrawl symptoms have been KILLER in every way. ineedhelp

4.5 miles tonight. Felt like I had a fever all day. So I totally wrote off running tonight. Then at around 4 took some Tylonal and was ready to call it a day. But one hour later I felt pretty good so I decided to go out. The run went great for 2 miles. By 3 miles I felt pretty rough. By mile 4 I was ready to vomit up the Tylonal. So did another half mile and gagged for a while in the parking lot. 100+ degrees and full sun as well.

Thanks for the high five during tempo -

I have people in my family that take Vitamin D and that has helped them - here's an article: http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-breakthrough-depression-solution/201111/psychological-consequences-vitamin-d-deficiency
