Last week's promising start crash hard Tuesday night, when I picked up a case of food poisoning I'm still battling through a bit. So the foundation of that 20-miler, a wonderful few days of sunshine, and the Rhody Run 12k were all lost. No running for five days, a combo of the lingering sickness, no appetite and lethargy, sleeping more to try and get healthy, and just a busy weekend that didn't leave time for even a short run. It's not been fun. 

But I got out for 40 slow minutes Monday night after work. Felt really rusty. But at least I did something. 40:15

Sorry to hear that, especially about missing the race. Guess you'll have to come on down to Tacoma to get your 12k at the Sound to Narrows instead!

Man, food poisoning stinks. Really drains you. Sorry.
