It's not often the whole month fits in 4 calendar weeks. It does this month.

AM- 11

Lunch- 7.5 on a windy day. At least it wasn't too cold, upper 40's.

Knee isn't happy today. I actually cut my second PT session short. Gotta get ready for Western. 3 friends from SC bought tickets in the past week to come to California to crew/pace.

I was supposed to go to Paris mtn with Barry and Seth. However, my all day headache worsened all day until, while driving to PM, a sneeze basically caused my head to explode and brought tears to my eyes. I finally admitted the pain would not allow a run so headed home, where I've sat in a dark room all evening. Goose egg for the day.

Good news for fans of Once A Runner

4 of the 6 at home have some stomach bug with either vomitting or the runs, and I'm one of them. I still went to work, not too wisely, but barely had any appetite or energy and didn't dream of running. Tomorrow doesn't look too good, either. Hopefully things will pick up by Saturday. Bummer of a week. In unrelated news, we plan to induce Marci next Thursday if she doesn't deliver before then, so this is my last week with 4 kids.
