AM - 4 miles. Lavender poisoning. The wedding we're in Oregon for was at a beautiful organic farm at the base of Mt. Hood. Unfortunately there was lavender everywhere, and I woke up this morning quite ill. The last time I felt this bad was after the Lavender 1/2 race last summer. Needless to say, I'll be skipping that race in the future. That vile weed cripples me! It took me 35 minutes to run these four mies so I figured bagging it there was the wise choice.

ick. dratted weed!

I love lavender flowers -- I like the color, but can sympathize with the reaction (I am violently allergic to mesquite trees, who have been blooming for two months now here).

Yikes! Good call bagging the run. Hopefully the wedding was fun!

Bummer Jake. I hope you are feeling better today.
