Personal:
I run with God. I use my running time to contemplate, to pray and to listen for His call. I'm married to a non-runner, but a supportive one, and we have four children.
4 slow miles. I don't feel great, but I feel better than yesterday. Even so, at 3 miles breathing was harder, but I had committed to 4, so I stuck it out.

Way to hang in there! Running with a cold is not fun, and then you go 4 miles. I'm impressed.

Way to stick it out. I hope you feel better soon.

Yeah, colds definitely make running harder - nice job.

Not much. Took yesterday off in a successful attempt to rest (was in bed by 7. Yes, 7). Probably going to take today easy. My throat and ears are clogged still, so breathing on speedy 800s (which I should have done yesterday) doesn't sound appealing.
I blame the weather.

I wish it wasn't so wishy washy
