I guess I'll try not running today and see how that works out for me. I think the congestion has moved into my chest. My head is relatively clear. I can breathe through my nose if I really try. But I've still got a cough and I've pretty well lost my voice. I kept whispering at my kids this morning and they would whisper back. But I wasn't trying to be quiet. I just couldn't talk.

It's very foggy today and I think it would be fun to run in the fog, but I guess I better not. That makes me sad.

yes, fog runs are fun. but there will be other foggy days. chest congestion can get nasty, so i think you are wise to take the day off. rest well. hope you feel better soon.

Good decision! It is sad, though, sorry you have to miss a day.

Carolyn,

I'm sooo sorry to hear that you're sick and not running. I know how important it is to you.

Remember in the movie Elf when the guy says, "I like to whisper too?" You can say that today :-)

Get better soon. Hopefully you'll have a great foggy morning run tomorrow.

I enjoyed some fog for ya this morning. I kept blinking trying to clear my eyes but then I remembered that I got lasik a couple of years ago which meant the misty eyes was not actually in my contacts, but was indeed the fog in the air. Hope you're back at it again tomorrow!

Onward through the fog!

Hope you're feeling better soon.

YUCK! Sorry you had to take a day off, but I truly think it was a smart decision! Sleep well today and then hit those lightning fast paces again soon!
