Sick Days
Friday I needed to get in some cold-weather running, so I went out and ran about 8.5 miles. Saturday morning I got up, did some yoga, and was feeling great. Then Sue and I drove into town to do some errands, and I could feel this wave of fatigue setting in. In the space of about an hour I went from ready to launch into my next workout to barely being able to lift my head.
This isn't a training effect: I'd caught whatever Sue had last weekend. So yesterday I stayed on the couch most of the day, and I'll probably do the same today. It's a weird kind of thing: I'll feel fine for a while, and then feel like crap for a while, and it keeps cylcing like that. But I'm better today than I was yesterday.
It's supposed to be a rest week anyway, in the final preparation for the half marathon on Sunday. Perhaps this is my body's way of enforcing it.

Watch you! Once you kick this tonight, you're going to feel GREAT tomorrow. I have more energy after my bought with the viral nasty than I've had in more than a year. I'm hoping part of it is also that mr/ms parasite has decided to go bye-bye.
