PM: 65' walk on the treadmill. HR 119.

Did 60' @ 15% incline. The purpose was to sweat without getting my HR too elevated. Cough still present. Hoping the next few days of steroids knocks it out. I'm tired of it.

Lower 20s and around 18MPH winds. Felt decent. Cough is somewhat better, but whatever it is it's serious business as I only have a few days of steroids and I think it will still be slighly longering. Not sure when I will feel normal again. Much faster than 11-12' does not feel appropriately easy.

Freaked out on some idiot driving too fast up to a stop sign in a school driveway pulling on to a side street. Last day of steroids tomorrow. Still coughing a bit, but it's mostly mild.

Hit 700 miles on my Saucony Freedoms. They are ripping, but the cushioning is still excellent.

PM2: 60 miles very easy on the arc trainer (or elliptical, I'm still not sure). HR 117.

Day 10 of steroids. Better, but still do not feel normal. 5 weeks is a long time to have a cough.
