Just an easy 3.  I've got this annoying, nagging cough.  I hope it stops raining soon.

An easy 7.  Cold/cough is improving.

An easy run with a little bit of a push at the end.  Not too much push, but a bit more effort.  Didn't run with a watch.  Just went by feel.

My cold has migrated into my head, but it's actually not too bad.  Just hard to hear--feels like my ears are stuffed with cotton.  I'm trying to decide what I am going to race in the next few months.  I think I will try to do my race with Carolyn Saturday, maybe a 5K on Thanksgiving in the tiny town of Philo (maybe), a 5K on December 4, and a 7.6 mile trail race on January 2. 

I have not  really blogged about this, but we decided to postpone the baby-making for a few more months, so I'm also trying to decide whether I should do the Illinois 1/2 or the full in May.  I'm leaning towards the 1/2.

I'm so sorry Carolyn.  I feel like the biggest loser.  I didn't feel great after my run on Friday and I woke up on Saturday with some stomach issues.  I had my running clothes on, I went outside once, and got only a few steps before I had to turn back around and get to the bathroom.  I spent the day in bed and I couldn't keep anything inside my stomach. 

I'm not feeling so great today (Sunday) either.  I don't even know what to eat.  Nothing tastes good.  I am out of bed, though.  I will race my mile either later today (which is doubtful) or tomorrow.
