Off.

Figured I was sick enough and it was a good idea to rest. Last day of the regular semester at Lawrence Tech. Trying to get to bed early and get in a good nap to knock out this cold.

Feeling a little bit better. I was planning on taking days off until Wednesday, but I just cannot do that at this point in the semester. Kept it easy.

I've been watching 6 Feet Under. Really solid.

Found out that I will not have a class at Lawrence Tech this spring, but there is a possibility of a fifth class at Oakland, which we really need. Lawrence Tech isn't that much money, and I will just make budget cuts accordingly.

Feeling slightly better. Better energy. Hopped on the trainer before a Zoom meeting. Tried to get up early to get in 120' but I fell back asleep. Megan was getting up with the boys anyway and she was in the guest bedroom as she has been coughing, so I was pretty well passed out.

Worked for a bit, went grocery shopping, took an almost two-hour nap. Body is definitely tired. I will try running maybe Friday or tomorrow depending on when I feel like it won't make my system worse.

PM: 60' on the trainer (White -5). 203W. HR 129.

Still sick. Making it hard to be motivated for pretty much everything including work. HR doesn't seem too elevated either at night or during exercise, which is weird.
