likely no running today. i got really nauseous with a killer migraine for most of yesterday and by the time i went to bed i was super achey and burning up. i feel better this morning, but not 100%. hopefully it's just a stomach flu or something and not COVID because i'm supposed to drive up to utah in a few days and that's just godawful timing. sounds like the kind of thing to happen to me, though. guess we'll see.

the symptoms started showing up after i cooked some eggs yesterday that i left a little runny, so it could be salmonella. honestly i hope so

PM - 3. after some advil and allergy pills this morning, felt much better. run was just "eh", but that's fine. gashed my shin open pretty good on a branch, didn't realize until i was getting gas for my car after and look down and see it bleeding everywhere

AM - 10 on the rail trail, 5:51 pace. felt great. drove down to yeehaw country(also known as texas) on monday and would have ran more since, but a brutal storm hit about a mile into that first texas run and lasted until late last night. hate running on asphalt but i'll be dadgum'd if it isn't easy to run fast on

PM - 5 on the country backroads, 5:53 pace. very hilly, very windy. only reason it was that fast was all the downhill(and tailwind) came in the last two miles, those were 5:37 and 5:28. went off today! i'm sure i'll be tired for the morning run tomorrow.

AM - 10 on the hilly backroads again, 6:11 pace. ran this right after waking up without the aid of caffeine; i usually wake up at least 90 minutes before a run to really wake up and ALWAYS have some form of caffeine beforehand, and today i saw the effect of it, or lack thereof. the pace was good but mentally i just didn't want to be out there lol. sucked it up and did what i needed to do.

PM - 6 miles on the backroads, 6:09 pace. first time running 15+ mile days back-to-back since january. that's embarrassing :) what's more embarrassing is if i continue the trend tomorrow, it'll be the first time since september!

AM - 11 miles on the backroads, 6:09 pace. made sure to make it extra hilly. 

PM - 6 backroads, 6:00 pace. ran at 3:30 with not a cloud in sight and i only sort of completely regretted it. i hear heat stroke builds character

AM - 10 on backroads, 6:09 pace. slept in and started the run at 8:30, oh boy did that suck. wasn't super hot but sun was blaring and it was warm enough to bring the misery. hills were just salt in the metaphorical wound. probably not running tonight so i can wake up absurdly early tomorrow to drive to provo, and considering that drive is about 18 hours not sure how running tomorrow will fare either. it'll probably be a two day drive, but i'd rather the second day be shorter. last few days were money so i'm not too worried about an off day.
