I've been sick.  Even so, I had to get some miles in, after nothing on Sunday and Monday; unless you count Super Bowl bingeing as a workout.

So I mounted up the treadmill and ran a bit slower than usual, in deference to my upper respiratory tract infection.  I cranked it up for a 2.5 7:30 miles in the middle.   I coughed 2 times, and felt pretty well for the whole run.  My wife and I simultaneously watched Biggest Loser on separate tvs.  She handled the remote control duties, which was nice.  

My pre-run fuel was 2 chocolate chip cookies.  Recovery drink was the remains of a CrownBurger chocolate shake.  It thawed nicely during my 90 minute run.  

I can't figure out how much or if I should cut back this week until I get over this thing.  I haven't been sick for more than a couple days in the past 3 years.  This thing is going on 7 days now...

There is definitely something going around. Hope you start feeling better soon. Good job on getting so many miles in while being sick.
