Woke up early, saw the snow and decided to hop on the treadmill instead. Since I've had a bad cold and relatively high fever for the last 2-3 days, today was my first day running since the race on Saturday. After running for about a mile, I thought I was going to throw up...(after doing so later today, I've surrendered to the fact that I have the flu) so I decided to walk for another 2 miles at an incline. Ah! I hate being sick!!! I'm going to try to take it easy until I know for sure I'm at 100%.
On a good note, I did decide to register for the Salt Lake 1/2 in April! That's it! I'm committed now!!! I guess getting sick at the beginning of my training is better than getting sick somewhere in the middle or the end. If I feel better later in the week, I hope to do a couple of short runs and take it easy. Hopefully, I can begin my training schedule on Monday. Thanks to everyone who has taken me under their wing and given me such great advice! I really appreciate it! |
