PM: 3 miles w/ Megan, averaged 10:39. HR 137.

Still have my cough, but I decided I've had it with resting as my physical health is starting to cut into my mental health. I figured about 30-35' would be okay and stick with that until I feel better. Didn't feel spectacular but it was nice to get out.

PM: 3.25 miles, averaged 10:44. HR 137.

Felt a little rough, but the weather was nice. I stayed home as I had to take Megan to the doctor (everything is fine).

For some reason after a spell of illness and not running for a bit I feel like I am starting over. I don't ever remember having this much trouble running. Trying to stay positive, but it's hard.

PM: 23.5-mile ride. HR 150.

Weather was fairly warm and I figured I would try a ride just doing loops around the neighborhoods. Worked out fine. Coughed and hacked here and there.

Off.

Cough flared up. I think from being around cigarette smoke. I woke up in the middle of the night coughing and it felt like I was drowning.

Feeling pretty low. HR elevated. Looking for goals to get excited about, but it's proving difficult. Going to try to get out every day this upcoming week and see if it helps.
