Beautiful morning (58, sunny, calm).  This head cold I have had the last few days got worse yesterday and really slept bad last night.  I felt some better after getting up this morning.  I did an easy 8 miles and didn't want to push it too hard so hopefully I can shake this cold.  Going to work today but will try to rest as much as possible and drink lots of fluids.

Hope you get better, no need pushing it if you are feeling that bad. Isn't it nice when the kids start back to school and bring home all the illnesses for you to fend off?

Thanks! You got that right. All summer with no problems then the kids go back to school and within 3 weeks I have a cold. I think they are tougher then me though. I don't like being sick.
