My head cold was not any better today (i.e., a killer sore throat) so it was basically a repeat of yesterday in regards to my running; that is, 4.1 miles after work on the treadmill at an easy pace.

For my non-running workout, it just consisted of just 300 sit-ups.

Five-Minute Plank Challenge: 30 second plank and side planks

Hi Rossy,

Sorry your're feeling bad :-( I mentioned in one of my blogs the other day that I don't seem to get sick as much since I started running and when I do I don't think it stay around as long. Hope that's the case with you!

sorry you've been sick -- hope you are feeling better.

enormous veggie sandwiches are one of my most favorite things in life.

Thanks Allie and Preston! My cold turned into the flu, so it's good to have it out of the way. After an week-long business trip to San Fran, it's great to be back in town and hopefully I can get all caught up on my blog entries today.

Preston, you are right about the sickness. I have found even when I do get sick, I am still functional; that is, jog some good miles and get work done.

Allie, from this trying-to-just-eat-healthy diet that I am on, I have discovered that veggie sandwiches are the best!
