I spoke way too soon and apparently I ran too soon as well (and that's lots of "o's" together with too soon). The moo room broom is too soon at noon.

Saturday was a rough day and apparently made me sicker. I had a long day (4:45 am - 10:30 pm) and ran outside and I guess I wasn't ready for that. I felt cruddy yesterday but powered through a full day of church activities, now I'm at work and my sinuses are bugging, I've got a headache, yada yada yada. I'll skip running today and probably tomorrow. I don't feel awful but not great. And here I thought I had superhuman running immune system powers. Hmph. :)

4 TM miles at the Y at lunch time. Yay. I feel good, most of my cold symptoms are gone. I'll run the next 2 days inside and probably a mix on Saturday. Supposed to do 20 this weekend but I'll likely shorten that up. I want to get better.

6 TM miles at home before work. Felt pretty good, doesn't seem to be any ill effects. Will go for 8 tomorrow, probably inside again as it's going to be -2. Our string of super warm weather is gone. Just in time for Spring. Yay.

20 miles today, most on treadmill, the rest outside. It was less than 20F and it makes me nervous being outside too long in those temps so I went to the Y for at least 12, possibly more. I got tired of the TM after a while, and it reset on me when I paused to do something so I bailed and headed home. I love my new Asics jacket! It's a bit warm and really ideal for 10F and below, but it was great to not be cold. I'd rather be sweaty in winter than cold.
