It must be going around Tom cuz I had it yesterday and my legs felt like they hit the wall today! You'll be alright by next weekend.

Thanks guys. Yeah Clay I guess it's just good that we're dealing with it now instead of next week. Hopefully of few days of relaxation, good sleep, and tapered running will do the trick.

You better get that stomach thing fixed. I want a good marathon out of you.
