7.5 miles with jtshad in Idaho Falls on a cool, blustery day.  Enjoyable run.  Added on a few more by myself afterwards.  Not sore at all from Saturday, but that was expected since my limiting factor was my overall health/fitness Saturday rather than muscular limitations.  ~6:45 avg pace.

No run. Finally closed on our house (2 weeks late, more than 1 week homeless) and spent the whole day moving in and starting to unpack, finally going to bed at midnite. Fever came back again, just like it did yesterday afternoon (nix-ing my evening run). This is getting old.

In some good news, between my recent stress and being sick, I have dropped 4-5 pounds. Almost at racing weight even though I am not running that much.

Sick and tired of being sick and tired.  Today was the worst I have felt since last Wed/Thur.  Fever all day, very weak.  Watching my hard work slip away day-by-day as I am unable to run.  Hopefully I'll be up for a small run tomorrow.  I think the half-marathon on Saturday set me back and made me sicker than I thought it would.

Ran 8 miles with Cody.  Only my third run in 11 days.  I hope I am finally on the upside of my sickness- I didn't feel good all week.  It was definitely my first run in a while, as my legs were tired and sluggish.  1:01:23, 7:40 avg.
