I'm sorry that's been hanging on so long. I'm curious, did you get a flu shot? I seem to get the gamboo every year, but I got a shot last fall and haven't gotten sick. (Yes, that faint sound you hear is me knocking on wood.)

Didn't get a flu shot this year. I don't think this is the flu though. It's what everyone is referring to as "that cough." No stomach issues. Just that nagging/hacking cough. Tough to run through this thing. Keeping the mileage going but feel like i'm losing ground.

The flu shot is for those pesky respiratory viruses and not for the "stomach flu" or bug. My husband and Ty both didn't get the shot, but the rest of us did, and funny that those two are the only ones that spent a week with tissues wadded up their noses and another week or two hacking afterwards. It doesn't always work, but usually I'm glad I got the shot. :-)

You're doing a great job being creative about your miles, although you feel like crap.

Good to know. There are so many pros and cons out there on flu shots. I gave-in to "don't get a flu shot" hype that seems to be going around. Hard to know what to do anymore. I all I know is that I didn't get the flu shot this year and feel like crap--haven't been sick in years. Coincidence?
