Extended Highland Glen loop (south along trail to Deerfield Elementary, west to 40th, north to HS, west and and south to end of park, circle around the pond and then back the same way to the flag pole, north to the underpass and then back through the orchard and along the creek). Felt pretty good over all, but noticed some recurrent plantar pain in my right foot. Didn't push it that hard today.

When I woke up this morning I felt like I was coming down with my daughter's cold. I considered for a moment just sleeping in, but by force of habit I just got up, got dressed and headed out the door. Temperatures were in the low 40's with a slight breeze out of the south. Mostly cloudy. About a mile and a half into the run, I started wheezing and I thought I might have to cut my run short, but I just kept going and about a half mile later it stopped. I still didn't feel great, but finished the run. I was a bit nauseated afterwards, but that too passed. I'm hoping I can fight this thing.

Laureen wasn't feeling well today so we cut it short (also needed to get back for the start of conference). As Amelila was still not feeling well, we just let her sleep.
