Last night I was finally able to start running again after a week of being sick and then recovering. I new that I probalby wouldn’t be quite up to where I was before and decided to try something different. Instead of running multiple sets of small runs I went for it to see what I could do. I ended up going for 6 1/2 minutes and although that wasn’t ideal, not too bad after being sick.

On Hold For A Few Days
2 years ago
I had a great run on Wednesday night but then I caught the flu! I was in bed all weekend and today is my first day back in the land of the living. I hope to get back at it soon but know that the next few days I will probably have to conserve my energy and use it to just make it through the day.
Vanishing Acts Is Done Also!

Thanks to the flu I read a lot this weekend! It took me a while to really get into vanishing acts but once I did I was really drawn into the characters the larger story. It was definitely an enjoyable read and brought up some interesting questions and issues.
