After a recovery week with lots of beach activities, I was excited to get up and run in my new Saucony Kinavara 8s I picked up while in San Diego. Unfortunately I started with a fever Saturday night and spent yesterday not feeling well. I slept better last night and didn't feel too bad this morning so I tried my planned 10 x 800 m speed work. 

I ran to the track and then started. I could not keep up my normal pace for the first 2 800s and then fell way off normal on my third and was feeling lightheaded, so I called it a day and ran home slowly for a total run of 6 miles. 

Hopefully I'll be feeling better tomorrow. Now I have to go survive work after being gone for a week.

I still feel terrible. I did attempt a run though.  4 miles on the trails. I was VERY weak and tired though.  Hopefully I kick this thing quickly.

Still not feeling great.

Ran on the TM:  1 warm up, 5 @ 6:35 pace, 2 cool down

Usually I do 9 at tempo pace but feeling ill still 5 was all I could handle today.

Actually felt worse today. Now it's in my lungs and I'm coughing and feeling weak and light headed.

I did manage to run 10 really easy miles in the TM though.
