I've been pretty sick since Saturday evening so I haven't run since Saturday morning. I felt it coming on Friday afternoon. I guess that explains why I was having trouble keeping my HR down on my run Friday.  I woke up feeling much better today so I did a very slow 4 mile trail run. I had to keep it way slower than normal to keep my HR in the 130s though.  I'm glad the sickness happened this past weekend, not this weekend or the next. I think I'll be back to 100% by race day on the 27th.

I hope you're over it too. Take care and rest up.

Rhett, rest up for the 27th. I know you've had that date circled for a while. You're right, the timing of this is not that bad.

HBR, thanks I'm improving each day.

Tom, I keep telling myself the same thing. It's good to hear it from someone else also.
