     My cold has moved to my chest and is causing me to cough more. I ran 10 miles today and felt pretty flat on the first few miles. I'm feeling a lot of congestion which is very annoying but it seemed to get better after a few miles. First 5 miles were about 9 min pace. I started feeling a bit better and picked it up some the second half. Last mile in 7:24. At least my hip seems to be doing pretty good. I could feel it a bit after the run but not much. Not sure how it would react to a big workout though. I may have to skip anything to long or hard this week. Overall pace was 8:34.
