Feeling sick and finals are taking up too much of my time.  consequently, I didn't get any miles in today.  Don't know how I'm going to make my quota this week.

It's too cold outside so I ran on the treadmill today.  I don't know if refusing to run outside when it's 20 degrees makes me a wuse, but if it does I guess I'm a wuse. I know it's winter and it will be cold for a while, but I hope that it gets back to 30 or 40 before too long. There is only so much that can be done on a treadmill.

I've been sick all week.  I thought, on Tuesday, I could just out run it, but it caught up with me. I don't know how much of a set back a week with virtually no training will be but I would like it very much if I could just get over this and get back to it.
