Been sick the last few days and I can not keep anything in  me so I am pretty weak. I felt a little better the last few miles but still pretty depleted. I got her done. I have a colonoscopy on tuesday so no running Monday or Tuesday as I prepare for that. My average pace was 8:58 with a total time of 1:31:59.

See you Wednesday.
