Really achy.  Think I got Covid in my bones.   Two weeks ago similar to Covid headache three days in a row.  Last week hair dyed and body aches so bad next day couldn't finish run though going slow.   Managed the 5 k sat and 10 k Monday   Felt good sat warm up.  Monday no warm up but felt achy in spine and left sit bone.  But handled run well not much pain. Then these two days Tuesday and Wednesday huge flare of arthritis pain.

Couldn't sleep last night.  Thinking too much. Took pain pill. My last one from 2.5 years ago.  Took at 4 am. Pain better during day.  Physical therapy good at 415 pm.  Helped. But got me sore for next day.  Didn't run.  Too tired from med and no sleep.
