PM: 6.6 miles in 50 minutes on the treadmill. It felt harder than it should have.

I didn't get the supervisor position I applied for but I did get full time, which will give me a consistent time (but not consistent day) schedule. Just a workaday bloak.

I set my dissertation defense date (March 9) and am making the final revisions (due February 12). Things are looking up, but I still don't feel great. Better, but not great.

Off. Same cold as the last two, which started on December 21. I get about 3-5 days of relief and then the same pattern begins again.

Off. Sick. Early morning and a long nap.

It looks like I will be working consistently 5:00AM-1:30PM, with no specifically designated days off. Once I get used to going to bed at 9 or 10 I should be good. Once my dissertation is defended I can get back to running and training. I'll do my best to exercise between now and then.
